- Queuing for a job fair
-
The queue for a Danish-Swedish job fair at MalmöMässan on 27 October 2021, organised by Greater Copenhagen. Here, Danish employers met Swedish job seekers - born in Sweden as well as outside. Since then, the Danish workforce has swollen to a record level of three million people.
- What is the situation in other Nordic countries?

Finland: If you are a citizen of another country and want to work in Finland, you need to apply for a residence permit. A residence permit is only valid in the country in which it is granted. You cannot, therefore, use a residence permit granted for Finland to work in another Nordic country. More information here:
Sweden: If you are not a citizen of an EU or EEA country, you must apply for a residence permit in order to live and work in Sweden. When you have a residence and/or work permit in a Nordic country, it only applies in the country in which it was issued – not in the other Nordic countries. If you have a residence permit in one of the other Nordic countries and want to work in Sweden or move to Sweden, you must apply for a permit in Sweden. More information here:
