German citizens do not need a visa for stays of up to 90 days in Denmark. For longer stays, a visa must be applied for. This is done through the Danish embassy or online on the official website. Please plan enough time for the application, as processing may take some time.
The Copenhagen Kastrup Airport is the largest airport in Denmark and has the best connections, ideal for international flights. There are also smaller airports like Aalborg and Billund, which facilitate exploring the region. From the airport, you can easily reach the city center by train or bus.
The local currency is the Danish krone (DKK). Credit and debit cards are widely accepted in Denmark, making it often unnecessary to carry cash. However, it is advisable to have small amounts on hand, especially in more rural areas or for small purchases.
Generally, no vaccinations are required to travel to Denmark. However, travel insurance is highly recommended to cover unexpected costs, whether for medical treatments or lost luggage. Be sure to check your insurance coverage before traveling.
To drive in Denmark, you need a valid driving license. An international driving license is advisable, especially if you plan to travel outside of Copenhagen. Also, note that the roads are well signposted. Mobility is easy, so a car is a good option for exploring remote areas.
SIM cards are easy to purchase in Denmark. Simply visit stores like 7-Eleven or electronics stores like Fona. Different providers like Telia and 3 offer prepaid packages that are well suited for travelers. Check the network coverage in advance to ensure a good internet connection.
