If you are applying for a residence and work permit in Denmark, you need to be aware of the new salary limit set by the Danish government. The new job offer should be within the salary range that is considered standard in Denmark.

When reviewing applications, the Danish Agency for International Recruitment and Integration (SIRI) consults income statistics from the Confederation of Danish Employers (DA) to determine whether a job offer falls within the salary range that is considered conventional in Denmark.
The updated salary statistics will be used in the case processing of applications submitted from 1 July 2024. The salary statistics are updated every quarter, and SIRI expects the next update to be effective from 1 October 2024.

SIRI will usually assume that your salary corresponds to Danish standards, if it is stated in the application form and employment contract that your salary is at least DKK 71,020.83 per month (2024 level). In most cases filed after 1 January 2021, the salary must be paid to a Danish bank account.
