As a general rule, the Danish Foreign Service, which includes the Danish embassies abroad, will assist all Danish citizens and foreigners who have permanent residence in Denmark.
Please note that the Danish Foreign Service is not empowered to grant funds in cases where Danish nationals are in need while travelling abroad. This applies whether it concerns requests to borrow money for a ticket back to Denmark, payment of hospital bills, medical evacuation to Denmark, or transportation home of deceased persons without any travel insurance. It also applies to paying for extra provisions for Danish citizens imprisoned abroad, expenses in connection with court cases, including lawyer's fees, travel and living expenses in connection with evacuations in cases of civil unrest, etc.
If the embassy provides assistance to you, you will generally be charged a fee for our assistance. Please note that advice and recommendations on this homepage are given with the usual provision for errors and omissions and that the embassy is not responsible for any damages or loss as a result of the information given on this home page.
