Frequently asked questions
What is the Medborgerskabsprøven?
+
It is the Danish Active Citizen Exam, a 25-question multiple-choice test on Danish culture, history, democracy, and everyday life. The exam runs for 30 minutes and you need 20 correct answers to pass.
How does the Medborgerskabsprøven help me get permanent residence?

Permanent residence in Denmark requires meeting 2 of 4 supplementary conditions. Passing the Medborgerskabsprøven is one of those four conditions, and meeting all four unlocks the 4-year fast-track instead of the standard 8 years.
