Current Travel Situation
Taiwan to Denmark: What You Need to Know
Denmark joined Schengen in 1997 and Taiwan has had visa-free Schengen access since 2011. Denmark maintains unofficial but substantive relations with Taiwan through the Danish Trade Organisation in Taipei. The Danish parliament (Folketing) has been supportive of Taiwan's international participation.
How to Get There
For longer stays, apply for a Danish residence or work permit through the Danish Immigration Service. The Danish Trade Organisation in Taipei can provide guidance.
Money & Banking
Denmark uses the Danish Krone (DKK), not the Euro. Cards are extremely widely accepted; Denmark is one of the most cashless societies in the world. ATMs dispense DKK.
Practical Tips
Copenhagen has one of the world's best-rated airports for connections. If you are transiting Copenhagen to non-EU destinations, check if you need a transit visa (Taiwan passport holders do not need an airport transit visa for Schengen airports).
