There are many occupations in Denmark for which there is a lack of qualified workers. If you have skills in one of these occupations, you can obtain a work and residence permit in very little time under the Positive List scheme.
The Positive List is a list of occupations that are in shortage in Denmark. Foreign workers from outside the European Union and the European Economic Area/Switzerland are eligible for work and residence permits under the Positive List scheme if they have a job offer in one of these occupations from a Danish employer.
In addition, applicants under Denmark’s Green Card scheme are eligible for bonus points on their points test if they have experience in an occupation on the Positive List.
Occupations whose requirements are marked with an asterisk are governed by special regulations, meaning they may require Danish citizenship, Danish specific qualifications, or international sectoral agreements.
