What The Danish Embassy Does
Ever wondered what the Danish Embassy does? Well, it does loads of different things, here’s just a few to get you started.
On entering an embassy, you are entering into a little bit of that country, no matter where you are in the world. The Danish Embassy is, for all intents and purposes, a little bit of Denmark, and you can go there to find out about, or do ‘all things Danish.’ They promote Danish businesses, societies, industry and services wherever they are in the world, and help to keep the Danish community spirit alive for the many Danish people in the area.
These days there are also loads of people who actually live and work in a country other than where they were born. Danish nationals living in the US can visit the embassy to renew passports, driving licenses, Denmark visas, and a host of other things. They also provide tons of information for anybody who is interested in traveling to, living or working in Denmark. Sometimes it can be pretty daunting being in a foreign country, especially if you lose your passport or have some other catastrophe while on your trip, so the Danish Embassy is the place to go. Let’s take a look at a few of the services and information provided by the Danish Embassy.
Danish Embassy Information
- Residence and Work Permits – all you need to know about working in Denmark, and the paperwork required.
- Driver’s License – If you have a Danish Drivers License and live, say, in the US, you can get a duplicate or renewal of the license with help from the Danish Embassy, or even an International License – they’ll tell you what to do and help you to do it!
- Danish Citizenship – Born in the USA? Parents Danish Nationals? Then you are too, no matter where you were born. You can keep your dual citizenship too, as long as you apply before you’re 22.

There’s very strong trade links between Denmark and the rest of the world, and you’ll be able to find out all the information you need about ‘doing the business’ the right and proper way.
What the Ferret?
Here’s a good one for you (no kidding, check it out for yourself). If you want to travel from the US to Denmark with a dog, a cat, or a ferret, they need to have either a microchip or a tattoo! What pictures does that conjure up in your mind, huh? Some tough looking ferret with a tattoo. No other animals need tattoos, rabbits, rodents and reptiles don’t need them, doesn’t really seem fair, does it?
