New members of the Denmark forum, introduce yourselves here - 2023

Hi, my name is Declan and I finalise my move to Copenhagen on Friday 24th February

This is my first time as an expat but spent a lot of time in Copenhagen, as I used to work for Ørsted and now I am moving as an IT consultant.

Nervous, but excited to finally make the move!

Welcome on board, Declan !

Congrats on your move ^^

I am sure everything will work out fine.

Should you have any question, feel free to open your own topic on the Copenhagen forum

All the best

Hi ! I'm Prithini from Malaysia . I'm working as a primary school English teacher for the past 9 years and obtained recognition for my teaching certificates from the Danish agency for higher education and Science. I'm planning to move to Denmark this year by getting a teaching job. Please do let me know if you have any recommendations. Thank you

Hello Prithini,

Welcome on board !

Feel free to create your CV in the Jobs in Denmark section of the website. You may also read the Finding a job and working in Denmark article for tips.

Have you researched and contacted some schools yet ?

All the best

Bhavna

Thank you so much, Bhavna. So kind of you to reply.

I have been applying but there's no news yet.

I have obtained Assessment of Qualifications by Danish Agency for Higher Education and Science.

The qualification is comparable in level to a Danish bachelor degree plus one year of a Danish Master of Arts.

I will keep trying. I even thought of coming over and approach directly to the schools? what u think? any ideas?

regards,

prithini

@ prithini :

It would be great if you could actually get in touch directly with some schools.

Note that Bhavna is a member of the Expat.com team and can't help you further with your questions about working in Denmark, since she is not from this country.

Therefore, i would suggest you to create your own thread on the Denmark forum and to ask all your questions.

Expatriates living there might be able to guide you and give you more specific information.

Thank you,

Thank you so much Priscilla.. 🙏🏼 will do

Hello everyone!

My husband recently got a job in Denmark and I will join him soon. I'm tasked with handling all the logistics of the move from Japan. It's really complicated! lol. I'm also struggling because VFS and Danish authorities keep losing my residence permit I've been issued a residence permit and also a CPR number but I've never seen my permit or entered Denmark. It's such a mess! Anyway, once that is sorted I will be joining my husband in the western side of Denmark. I have a lot of hobbies and hope to meet others with similar interests, but we will live in the countryside so it might be difficult.

This isn't my first time moving to a foreign country but it's certainly the most challenging so far.

I'm always happy to connect with new people and will listen to any advice with an open mind. Nice to meet you!

Hello and welcome on board @Kaia,

Moving is always very stressful specially getting the formalities done and logistics right.

That's why some people prefer to use an agent. However for those who want to take up the challenge, we are here as a community and we will try to guide you.

I can see that you have created a thread on the forum to put forward your questions. I hope you get some guidance soon.

It is essential to stay in touch with VFS and the Danish authorities to resolve the issue promptly. Keep records of all communication and documentation related to your permit/move.

Be. patient with yourself, you are doing your best.

Regards

Bhavna

@Bhavna Thank you for the kind words. I'm doing what I can with what I have and I know eventually I'll be over there with my husband and cats. Just not right away I guess lol.

The pay of a bartender will never meet the income requirements needed to enter Denmark.

Hello Everyone,

I'm Fabrice, 34, from France.

I planned to move to Denmark (Copenhagen) on Janurary (I already rent a small flat for 2 months).

My best Friend is living in CPH for 5 years now an during my visits I simply fell in love with the country !

Right now I'm working in IT as software project manager in construction domain but I'll also try something else (why not workng as a construction worker for few months).

Unfortunately I'm not speaking Danish but I still have 4 months for trying hard !

Wish me luck

Best regards

@Fabrice HEMMER Hello and welcome on board !

Wish you all the best in your move. Feel free to open a new topic on the Copenhagen forum to seek advice from members if you have questions.
