Danemark : à savoir avant de partir
L’essentiel
- Use Danish kroner, not euros. The 1,000-krone banknote ceased to be legal tender in May 2025.
- Face-covering rules apply to visitors in public places; lawful exemptions include health reasons.
Entrée et visas
Denmark follows Schengen short-stay rules: visa-exempt visitors share a 90-day allowance in any 180 days across the area. EES biometric registration takes place at external borders; it is not an online pre-arrival application. ETIAS is not operating; official diplomatic updates expect 2027, with no fixed launch date.
Validité du passeport: Non-EU short-stay visitors: issued within the previous 10 years and valid at least 3 months after planned Schengen departure.
À la frontière, on peut vous demander
- Carry evidence of accommodation, onward travel and funds; allow time for external border checks.
