How to submit a Denmark Green Card application?

You can put forward an application for a Green Card of Denmark, or work permit of Denmark in a number of ways.

1. You can put forward it at the Danish diplomatic mission in your home country or the country where you have resided with authorization for the past three months. The mission will then forward your application to the Immigration Service in Denmark, where it will be processed.

2. If there is no Danish mission in your home country or country of current residence, it is very much possible to put forward your application at the mission of another Schengen country. As a rule the mission of another Schengen country only cover short stay visas. Exceptions are made for the Swedish and Norwegian embassies, where applications for residence or work visas may also processed. Though, the Norwegian Embassy in Colombo Sri Lanka and the Swedish Embassy in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of Congo only processes Denmark short term visa applications. Here is the list of countries along with the missions which process Denmark visa.

• You can put forward your application at the Service Centre of the Immigration Service. If you reside outside Greater Copenhagen, you can also put forward your application at the local police who will then further send it to the Immigration Service. If the Immigration Service recognizes your application for processing, you will be allowed to stay in Denmark while your application is being processed.
  
• As a substitute, you can book a meeting with the Immigration Service. This service is aimed at people applying for a work permit and Greencard in order to work in Denmark.
