Moving to Denmark?

Do it the ICS way - no bureaucracy, only service

• International Citizen Service (ICS) – all the service you need in one place

  There’s a lot to take care of when you arrive in Denmark as a foreign employee, job seeker or student. But International Citizen Service (ICS) is there to help.

  We make the contact to Danish authorities as easy as possible – for you, your partner, and for Danish companies that employ foreign employees.

  All the authorities you typically need to contact are represented at ICS. So in most cases, you’ll only need to visit an ICS office in order to take care of your paperwork and find answers to your questions.

  Good luck with your planning and welcome to Denmark!
