Denmark - The official website of Denmark - www.denmark.dk
Chalk full of information (and no shortage of helpful detail). While the ‘official’ site of most any country paints a fearlessly rosy picture of the way things function, as does this one, in Denmark the reality might actually be true!
Work in Denmark - www.workindenmark.dk
Yes, we realize that you probably already are working in Denmark. Still there are a lot of basic and practical information on this official government website that just might be useful if you have some ‘official’ questions regarding your work and stay here.
JobsinCopenhagen - www.jobsincopenhagen.com
A good site with an up-to-date list of English-speaking jobs in Denmark. Certainly not a comprehensive list of what’s out there, by any means, but a good place to be introduced to many companies in Denmark regularly employing non-Danish speaking professionals.
The Copenhagen Post - www.cphpost.dk
World-class journalism is not easy: from chasing down timely leads to penning revealing exposes or daring editorials. Some newspapers settle for plain, informative, practical and occasionally entertaining. Including The Copenhagen Post – Copenhagen’s English newspaper.
Visit Denmark - The official guide Danish tourism and travel information - www.visitdenmark.com
There’s plenty of stuff to do and places to see in this flat country that we’re sure you haven’t yet. Which is where this site comes in handy. For example, check out the stats on the Top 25 attractions in Denmark (including annual paid visitor numbers) for a few hints.
SKAT - The Danish tax authority - www.skat.dk
An Ex-pat friend once emailed SKAT, the Danish tax authority, an English question. The response: ‘In Denmark, the official language is Danish, so we will answer your question in Danish’. And they did. Patience is advised when dealing with the oh-so-helpful lot at SKAT.
Ministry of Foreign Affairs - www.um.dk
Official site of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Denmark. Information in English regarding consular services, foreign and development policy, trade & investment, EU matters, along with plenty of links to guide you to related information you may find relevent.
Journey Planner - www.rejseplanen.dk/bin/query.exe/en
Door-to-door directions (in English!) for getting around Denmark via the country’s excellent public transportation network. Just type in your starting address, final destination, and when you want to go. Denmark at your fingertips – it really works!
The Øresund Region - www.oresundsregionen.org/index.php?obj=2fa92ef4&code=1
And overview of the Øresund Region, which spans Copenhagen and surroundings and the Southwest part of Sweden (called Skåne), a dynamic area teeming with business and cultural possibilities, connected by the Øresund bridge, and sharing the same (often lousy) weather.
Meet the kids - Denmark.dk - www.um.dk/um_files/Denmark/kids/
Occupying a grey area somewhere between cleverly simple, informative and mildly annoying, this site offers a generalized overview of Denmark, its people, and some of the wider trends and customs. It’s not the worst place to gain a bit of background info into Denmark.
