About the honorary consulate in Bratislava
The honorary consulate represents Denmark in Slovakia. The ministry’s list gives the office hours as Monday to Thursday 10:00–15:00; Friday 10:00–12:00. To check before a visit, call +421 2 5441 4441 or e-mail katcec@umgate.dk.
The office is in the capital, Bratislava, about 8 km in a straight line from Bratislava Airport (M. R. Štefánik).
As citizens of an EU country, Danish nationals need no visa for Slovakia; a valid passport or national identity card is enough to enter.
Which Danish office issues passports and visas?
Passports and other formal consular services for Danish citizens are handled by the Danish Embassy in Vienna (accredited to Slovakia).
Denmark has no embassy in Slovakia. According to the Diplomatic List of the Slovak Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs (7 October 2026), the mission accredited to Slovakia is the Embassy of Denmark in Vienna. It is headed by Christian Grønbech-Jensen (ambassador, credentials presented on 15 March 2023).

What can an honorary consul do?
An honorary consul is not a career diplomat but a local resident – often a business person or lawyer – appointed by Denmark and approved by the host country. Depending on the powers granted, the honorary consul can help Danish citizens in an emergency (lost passport, accident, arrest), pass on applications and documents to the embassy, and certify signatures or life certificates. Passports and visas are not issued by an honorary consulate; they remain the responsibility of the embassy or a career consulate.
