Info

Other nationalities Students from other countries also need a residence permit if their stay exceeds three months. Applications must be submitted to the Danish embassy or consulate in your home country at least two or three months before you leave for Denmark. To speed up the process, enclose the purple application supplement to application for a residence permit. Proof must be shown that the student has been or will be accepted at DTU and has sufficient means of support to cover the stay in Denmark. If you want to get in touch with the Danish Immigration Service the address is: Udlændingestyrelsen (Danish Immigration Service) Ryesgade 53 2100 Copenhagen Ø Tel: 3536-6600 between 8.30 a.m. - 12 noon and Thursdays also from 15.30 p.m. – 17.30 p.m. or 3530-8450 between 9 a.m. – 15 p.m. and Friday between 9 a.m. – 13 p.m. Extensions Depending on your nationality and address in Denmark, applications for an extension of your residence permit must be addressed to either Copenhagen County, Frederiksborg County, the Prefect of Copenhagen or the Immigration Service (see above). Students applying for an extension must be ready to submit documentation from their teachers or their DTU department indicating that their studies are progressing satisfactorily. To speed up the process, enclose the supplementary form along with your application for extension of residence permits. The forms are available from DTU's International Office. Visa Students from countries outside the EU and the Nordic countries need a Visa. Check with the Danish embassy or consulate in your home country if you are in doubt. For stays longer than three months, students from these countries must apply 22 for a residence permit in their home country (see above). Insurance Remember to check your personal insurance policies before leaving your native country. It is very important that you have: • health insurance • liability insurance Health Insurance Stays up to 3 months (no residence permit necessary) Nordic citizens Citizens from Nordic countries are entitled to the same medical treatment as Danish nationals. EU citizens Citizens from EU countries are entitled to medical treatment in acute cases or if they have an E-104 (E-111) form from their native countries (which does not, however, cover transport back to their home country). If you do not have a completed E-104 (E- 111) form, you do not have medical insurance coverage during your stay in Denmark. In this case, we strongly advise you to take out insurance that covers medical treatment and repatriation before leaving for Denmark. If you have not done so, the PF Office in Building 101F can help you to take out a policy here in Denmark. All other nationalities Citizens from all other countries are not covered and are strongly advised to take out an insurance that covers medical treatment and repatriation. If you have not done so, the PF Office in Building 101F can help you to take out a policy here in Denmark. Stays longer than 3 months (residence permit required) Nordic citizens
Citizens from Nordic countries are entitled to the same medical treatment as Danish nationals. EU citizens If you are an EU national, you must register at the local National Registry office immediately after your arrival in Denmark. If you bring a completed E-104 (E-111) form with you from your native country, you are automatically covered by the Danish National Health Service, with access to free medical treatment by doctors and in hospitals (does not cover the costs of possible transport home). If you do not have such a form, you are not covered during the first six weeks of your stay in Denmark: the PF Office in Building 101F can help you to take out a policy to cover the six weeks if you so desire. All other nationalities Nationals from outside Nordic and EU countries are, however, not covered during the first six weeks of their stay in Denmark. The PF Office in Building 101F can help you take out health insurance for the six weeks if you wish. When you register at a National Registry office you will be asked to choose a doctor. It may be a good idea to ask a Danish friend or colleague to recommend one. Your central persons register number (CPR number) is also your health insurance number, and a yellow National Health Service medical card will be sent to your address in Denmark within three weeks. Remember to bring the card if you go to a doctor or dentist. The name, address and telephone number of your doctor will be printed on the card. After your studies at DTU are finished, before you leave Denmark, you must return this medical card to your local National Registry Office. 23 Liability Insurance As a supplement to health insurance, you need a liability insurance to cover personal injury, legal aid and damage to property. If you do not have such insurance, the PF Office in Building 101F can help you take out a policy, which will be valid as soon as you have paid. Arriving in Copenhagen Coming to Denmark as an international student, you must bring with you the following documents: a valid passport, a visa if required, a letter of acceptance and a residence permit if required. National Registration upon arrival (Folkeregisteret) When you arrive in Denmark you need to be registered at a National Registry Office (see chapter 6 for the address and phone number). The procedure is described below. Students from Nordic countries You only have to register if your stay exceeds six months. You will need an inter-Nordic certificate from your home municipality recording your change of address. Please give this certificate to your local Danish National Registry Office, which will then issue you a central persons register number (CPR number). No other documentation is necessary. Students from all other countries If your stay in Denmark will last for more than three months, you must register at the National Registry Office (Folkeregister) in the municipality (kommune) in which you live in Denmark. Remember to bring your passport and documentation for your residence permit. Ask at the National Registry Office for a receipt of notification of the move and for a temporary personal registration certificate: for example, ask them to enter your new CPR number in your passport.
