Do I need a visa for Denmark?
No – if you’re a British citizen travelling to Denmark with a valid passport, then you won’t need to apply for a visa. If you’re staying longer than three months, you should apply for a residence permit.
Healthcare in Denmark
British citizens should have their free European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) or Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC), which can be used in Denmark. This will cover any necessary treatments you may receive at public healthcare centres or hospitals on your trip. However, it’s important to remember to still have travel insurance to be able to cover the costs of any unexpected medical treatment the EHIC/GHIC might not cover, including repatriation costs. You can find more information about healthcare in Denmark here.
If you have pre-existing medical conditions you must declare these before you buy your policy to ensure you’re fully covered.
Can you help if I need medical treatment while in Denmark?
Yes – all our policies come with access to our 24-hour emergency assistance team, so there will always be someone here to help you if you become ill or are injured while abroad.
If you need assistance at any time, day or night, just give our emergency medical team a call.
