Residence Permit in Denmark
Applying for a residence permit in Denmark can be a demanding and uncertain process. Whether you wish to live, work, study, or reunite with family in Denmark, the immigration rules are complex and the documentation requirements strict. At KROMANN Advokatfirma, we offer specialised legal assistance throughout your application – from your first questions to the final decision.
We understand how overwhelming the process can feel, especially if you are unfamiliar with Danish procedures. Our role is to ensure that your application is legally sound, well prepared, and that your rights are protected every step of the way.
When Is a Residence Permit Required?
You need a residence permit if you plan to stay in Denmark for more than 90 days and do not hold Danish or Nordic citizenship. The same applies to EU citizens who intend to reside long term. Common reasons include moving to Denmark for work or studies, reuniting with a family member, or applying for permanent settlement after several years of legal residence.
Each situation involves different legal pathways, and it is crucial to apply under the correct category. Our immigration lawyers will help you navigate the process based on your purpose of stay and personal circumstances.
Legal Guidance Makes the Difference
Even a small mistake in your application or missing documentation can lead to rejection or significant delays. Immigration law changes frequently, and it is easy to lose track of the newest requirements. That is why legal support can be crucial – not only to prepare your application but to ensure that it meets the legal standards applied by the Danish authorities.
We do not simply assist with forms. We represent your interests legally and ensure that your application is presented in a professional and persuasive manner, giving you the best possible chance of approval.
Types of Residence Permits We Handle
Denmark offers several types of residence permits depending on your reason for staying. At KROMANN Advokatfirma, we assist with:
- Work permits (including Pay Limit Scheme and Positive List)
- Student residence for approved study programmes
- Family reunification with a spouse, partner or child
- Residence under EU law
- Humanitarian and asylum-based permits
- Permanent residence after several years of legal stay
We assess which category fits your case and ensure your application complies with all current rules and documentation requirements.
How We Assist You Through the Process
We handle your case with care and legal precision. When you work with us, we begin with a personal consultation to understand your situation. From there, we assess your eligibility, advise you on the correct permit type, and assist in gathering all necessary documentation.
We handle all communication with the Danish Immigration Service or SIRI, draft legal submissions to support your case, and represent you in case of interviews or appeals. If your application is rejected, we prepare and submit appeals, including legal arguments that address the reasons for refusal.
Unlike general advisors, we provide strategic legal representation that is tailored to your needs and continuously updated with changes in immigration law and practice.
Temporary vs. Permanent Residence
Temporary residence is typically granted for work, study, family reunification or protection reasons. These permits are valid for a limited period but can often be extended.
Permanent residence requires a longer period of legal stay and fulfilment of specific conditions. These may include Danish language skills, work history, financial independence, and no recent use of public benefits. If you are unsure whether you meet the requirements, we will assess your case thoroughly and advise you on how best to proceed – including any possible exemptions or special circumstances.

We are committed to providing professional, honest and efficient assistance throughout your immigration process. Our goal is to make a difficult process as clear and manageable as possible. With KROMANN Advokatfirma as your legal representative, you will never be left navigating the system alone.
Whether you are applying for a temporary or permanent residence permit in Denmark, renewing your permit, or seeking family reunification, we are ready to guide you through the legal steps – with clarity, confidentiality, and commitment.
