Denmark Implements Work Permit Exemption for Business Events
In a move aimed at enhancing its profile as a hub for global business events, Denmark has announced a new 10-day work permit exemption for certain foreign nationals involved in organizing and executing conferences, trade fairs, and other business-related events.
The exemption is designed specifically for key event personnel, including managers, planners, organizers, technicians, and communication specialists. However, it comes with specific limitations to ensure that the policy remains focused and effective.
This exemption applies exclusively to permanent members of international event teams who are employed by foreign organizers or subcontractors. Additionally, it is restricted to indoor business events that are closed to the public, requiring a minimum of 400 registered participants. The exemption encompasses various stages of the event process, including preparatory work, activities during the event, and post-event responsibilities.
This alert serves purely for informational purposes. For any inquiries or further clarification, clients are encouraged to reach out to their designated global immigration professionals at Fragomen.
