You are advised not to purchase closed airline tickets or travel insurance before the diplomatic mission confirms that you are eligible for a visa.
Time required to issue visa:
The overwhelming majority of visa applications are processed and decided on by Danish diplomatic missions abroad. These cases will usually be decided within a few days. Some cases, however, may take 10-12 days.Cases handled by the Immigration Service, including most applications to visit friends and family, have an average processing time of approximately ten weeks.
The average processing time for other types of visas, e.g. business visas and visas for cultural visits, is four to six weeks.
In the case of applications for business visas, the Immigration Service will normally send a questionnaire to the contact in Denmark. If there is sufficient information to make a decision after the contact has filled out the questionnaire, the processing time should be no more than 30 days.
The average processing time for extension of a visa/temporary stay is currently one to two weeks.
The Immigration Service calculates processing times based on the date the application was received. The times listed here are rough averages. Some cases will be processed faster, while others may take longer.
