About the Danish Embassy in Berlin
The Danish Embassy in Berlin is the official diplomatic representation of the Kingdom of Denmark in Germany. It represents Danish interests and supports the close political, economic, cultural and social relationship between Denmark and Germany.
Denmark and Germany share a border and cooperate closely as members of the European Union, NATO and the Schengen Area. Bilateral relations cover trade, energy, security, climate policy, infrastructure and cross-border cooperation.
The Danish-German border region has particular importance because of its strong economic links and the presence of national minorities on both sides of the border. Cooperation between the two countries also includes education, culture and regional development.
In addition to its diplomatic role, the embassy provides consular services for Danish citizens living within its regional jurisdiction and assists with passports, documents and other official matters.
Visa Information
Danish citizens do not need a visa for Germany. As citizens of the European Union, they can travel to Germany with a valid Danish passport or national identity document and benefit from EU freedom of movement.
German citizens likewise do not need a visa to travel to Denmark. They may enter Denmark with a valid German passport or identity card and can live, work or study there under the applicable EU rules.
Because Denmark and Germany are both members of the Schengen Area, there are normally no routine immigration controls at their common internal border. However, temporary border controls may be introduced, so travellers should always carry a valid travel document.
Visa matters handled by Danish missions in Germany mainly concern third-country nationals who legally reside in Germany and require a Danish visa or residence permit for their intended stay.
