Facts
Denmark increases its fight against social dumping:  
  • A foreign company must declare its VAT number to RUT to allow tax authorities control over whether it provides services across borders.
  • Shorter deadlines for reporting to RUT
  • Public access to more information stored by RUT
  • The Working Environment Agency can issue fines to companies which break their duty of notification
  • More resources for SKAT (the Danish tax authority) to control what tax foreign companies pay
  • Increased use of labour clauses in public tenders
  • Better controls to ensure foreign trucks observe the Danish highway code - so-called cabotage.
