From Saturday 14 March, 12 noon, the Danish border will temporarily be closed for foreign nationals who do not have a recognised purpose for entering Denmark. All Danish citizens will be allowed to continue to cross the border. Foreign nationals normally living (temporary or permanent residents) and working in Denmark will still be able to enter the country. In addition, those who need to transit through Denmark in order to return to their place of residence will be able to. However, tourists and those the Danish authorities say cannot demonstrate a recognised purpose (residence, work, delivery/collection of goods, transit) to enter Denmark will not be allowed to cross the border. There may be further updates to how these policies take effect as the Danish and local authorities implement this ruling over the coming days.
