Living in Denmark

Anyone seriously considering moving to the northernmost mainland of the EU will quickly discover that the road to the kingdom is not only charming, but also complex. Whether you are an EU citizen or a third-country national, the Danish immigration system requires orientation, preparation, and a good understanding of bureaucracy, language, and society. This book is a comprehensive guide for anyone who wants to live, work, or retire in Denmark. It explains step by step the legal requirements, the peculiarities of the Danish labor market, the tax system, health care, the education system-and what it means to arrive in a society that is very friendly but rarely says "hello" out loud. Legal sources, contacts with authorities, practical tips, and cultural orientation are carefully linked together. The book does not get bogged down in paragraphs, but guides you through the entire emigration process with sound knowledge, realistic expectations, and occasional Danish understatement. An indispensable guide for anyone who really wants to understand Denmark. Bremen University Press has published over 5,000 specialist books in various languages since 2005.
