Denmark Immigration Calculator


Denmark is fast becoming one of the top destinations for immigrants. This is no surprise owing to the sheer beauty of the country and the almost limitless opportunities the country offers to well qualified professionals who get lucky enough to acquire the Danish green card. However, the high number of people, all of them highly skilled professionals wishing to immigrate to Denmark each year have forced the Danish government to put in place stringent measures to screen would be immigrants. The country offers immigrants a three year Danish green card. To acquire this well sought after Greencard, the immigrant has to score a certain amount of points based on the Denmark immigration calculator.

The Denmark immigration calculator is used to award prospective immigrants points based on certain factors, among them; the applicant’s level of education, age, level of adaptability, previous work experience and most importantly language skills. We are going to look at how the Denmark immigration calculator awards points based on all these criteria.

The applicant is required to submit all education certificates and diplomas along with other documents when applying for the Greencard. CIRIUS, a Danish organization in the science, technology and innovation ministry will then assess your educational certificates to ascertain whether they are compliant with international standards. A bachelor’s degree is the minimum educational level that can be awarded points. A PhD earns the applicant 80 points in the Denmark immigration calculator, a master’s degree is awarded 60 points while a bachelor’s degree holder can either be awarded 50 points or 30 points depending on whether he has a one year master’s degree or just graduated.

The Denmark immigration point calculator awards points to candidates based on the amount of experience the applicant has in areas the company may be experiencing shortages. An applicant can be awarded between 10 and 15 points depending on the relevancy of his experience and the number of years worked.

Another factor that the Denmark immigration calculator uses is age. Younger candidates are favored more with a maximum of 15 points for those below 34 years and 10 points for applicants between the ages of 35 and 40. An English, Danish, or German language test can earn an applicant at most 30 points. The applicant is also assessed for adaptability to the Danish environment.
