The standard of living in Denmark is high, even for European immigrants, and the monthly expenses for a family of four can range from approximately 3,924.07\u20ac. Moreover, the prices in the capital, Copenhagen, are among the highest in the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, for international students, the cost of living in Denmark may be more affordable compared to that of regular immigrants. And, if you work on a contract, you can cope with the budget just fine (unless you spend too much on unnecessary and luxurious items, of course). Fortunately, salaries are high, too. The average monthly net salary in Denmark per person is 25,495.58 DKK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_82_2 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<label for=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-69d6175315b27\" class=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-label\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/label><input type=\"checkbox\"  id=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-69d6175315b27\"  aria-label=\"Toggle\" \/><nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fantastic-removals.co.uk\/blog\/cost-of-living-in-denmark\/#Opening_a_bank_account\" >Opening a bank account<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fantastic-removals.co.uk\/blog\/cost-of-living-in-denmark\/#What_is_the_average_rent_in_Denmark\" >What is the average rent in Denmark?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fantastic-removals.co.uk\/blog\/cost-of-living-in-denmark\/#How_much_are_houses_in_Denmark\" >How much are houses in Denmark?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fantastic-removals.co.uk\/blog\/cost-of-living-in-denmark\/#Cost_of_utility_bills_in_Denmark\" >Cost of utility bills in Denmark<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fantastic-removals.co.uk\/blog\/cost-of-living-in-denmark\/#Transportation_expenses\" >Transportation expenses<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-6\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fantastic-removals.co.uk\/blog\/cost-of-living-in-denmark\/#Cost_of_necessities\" >Cost of necessities<\/a><ul class='ez-toc-list-level-3' ><li class='ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-7\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fantastic-removals.co.uk\/blog\/cost-of-living-in-denmark\/#Food_costs_in_Denmark\" >Food costs in Denmark<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-8\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fantastic-removals.co.uk\/blog\/cost-of-living-in-denmark\/#Attire_and_personal_care\" >Attire and personal care<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-9\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fantastic-removals.co.uk\/blog\/cost-of-living-in-denmark\/#Cost_of_Living_in_Denmark_for_International_Students\" >Cost of Living in Denmark for International Students<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-10\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fantastic-removals.co.uk\/blog\/cost-of-living-in-denmark\/#Takeaways\" >Takeaways<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Opening_a_bank_account\"><\/span>Opening a bank account<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>People over the age of 18, expats included, may open a bank account in Denmark before and after arrival. Most banks allow this for immigrants before their arrival on-site or through online banking. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For this purpose, they may ask you to show your CPR number and documents at a Danish branch of the bank after you arrive. This means you won\u2019t have a fully functional Danish bank account until after you arrive in the country and visit a branch to complete the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Opening a Danish bank account with a reliable online bank is the second option. You can have your Danish card sent to your current address before moving to Denmark. To take advantage of all the security features and services, choose a bank with a full banking licence. This way, you will have a fully functional bank account before even arriving in Denmark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The documents you must provide to apply for a Danish bank account are:<\/p>\n\n\n<\/p>\n<ul class=\"list-red-check\">\n<li><i class=\"icon-check\"><\/i>Photo ID which can be either a national ID card or a passport and notarized copies of them<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"icon-check\"><\/i>Civil registration number called a CPR number<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"icon-check\"><\/i>Proof of address in a Danish document<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"icon-check\"><\/i>Proof of employment or enrollment document<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\n\n\n\n<p>Residents of Denmark over 18 years of age must also have the so-called NemID (a digital signature that gives you access to online self-services) and NemKonto, which lets you receive money from public authorities. Banks are familiar with both and can assist you to open the account or entirely do this for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_the_average_rent_in_Denmark\"><\/span>What is the average rent in Denmark?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The accommodation costs in Denmark vary based on the specific city or town you choose to live in. In Copenhagen, rental and property prices are somewhat lower compared to those in London, yet they exceed the costs found in many other towns and cities across the UK. This contributes to the overall higher average cost of living in Denmark. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Renting a 1 bedroom apartment in the central part of Copenhagen costs about 8,002.72 DKK. If you rent the same flat in the suburbs, you\u2019ll pay 6,134.22 DKK per month. As reported by Statistics Denmark, the total number of dwellings in Denmark in 2023 was 4.82 million, showing a 0.9% increase compared to the previous year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Approximately 48% of these dwellings are owned by their occupants, while the remaining 51% are rented. Living in smaller towns is a great deal less expensive than choosing bigger cities, especially the capital. Most landlords expect to receive 3 months\u2019 rent paid upfront.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You need to prove your reliability to your landlord and provide these certificates:<\/p>\n\n\n<\/p>\n<ul class=\"list-red-check\">\n<li><i class=\"icon-check\"><\/i>Proof of solvency such as a bank statement or a contract from your current employer<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"icon-check\"><\/i>Filled in mandatory reports for the start and end of your tenancy<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"icon-check\"><\/i>Recommendations from the previous lessor<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\n\n\n\n<p>You won\u2019t usually have any utility expenses included in the rent. Calculate the lease well, as it represents most of the overall costs of living in Denmark. Landlords and tenants have the practice of agreeing on which bills to pay in advance. The landlord pays taxes on rent. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finding a property to live in on lease is a difficult and rather pricey task, so you can arrange this in advance. You can find landlords yourself and cut down on the expenses you would otherwise spend on estate agency fees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_much_are_houses_in_Denmark\"><\/span>How much are houses in Denmark?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In case you plan to buy a home in Denmark, you must have lived in the country for 5 or more years. You also need to have a residence permit or own a business in Denmark. As per Danish law, both residents and EU citizens are permitted to finance up to 80% of a property&#8217;s purchase price through a mortgage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A minimum down payment of 5% from personal funds is required, while the remaining amount, which can be up to 15%, may be covered by a bank loan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For non-EU residents, including British expatriates, the regulations differ slightly. While it is still possible to secure a mortgage from a Danish bank, based on factors such as income and creditworthiness, the initial deposit required may be considerably higher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is likely not unexpected that the cost of living in Denmark and other Scandinavian countries tends to be relatively high, particularly in comparison to the UK. Property prices also reflect this trend, with variations based on the type of property and location. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Choosing to buy a property in the bustling city centre of Copenhagen will result in higher costs, while purchasing a home on the outskirts can be significantly more economical. For example, an apartment in Denmark may cost 38,656.04 DKK per square meter in the central areas and 27,230.24 DKK in the suburbs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Check also:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fantastic-removals.co.uk\/blog\/cost-of-living-in-norway\/\">Cost of Living in Norway<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fantastic-removals.co.uk\/blog\/cost-of-living-in-sweden\/\">Cost of living in Sweden<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Cost_of_utility_bills_in_Denmark\"><\/span>Cost of utility bills in Denmark<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Utility expenses play a significant role in the overall cost of living in Denmark. These monthly bills typically cover heating, electricity, water, cooling, and rubbish disposal, and the exact amount can vary depending on your location and living situation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For a person living in Copenhagen in a 45 m\u00b2 (480 sq ft) studio, the essential utility bills amount to approximately 1,275 DKK per month. On the other hand, 2 people in an 85 m\u00b2 flat can expect to pay around 2,560 DKK for the most basic utilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As part of your utility costs, you\u2019ll pay a water connection fee, a water bill, and a green tax on water. These fees are consolidated into one total bill, which includes the tax on drinking water, wastewater, VAT, and other green taxes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some utility bill averages:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<style>\n#customers {\n  font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\n  border-collapse: collapse;\n  width: 100%;\n}\n\n#customers td, #customers th {\n  border: 1px solid #ddd;\n  padding: 8px;\n}\n\n#customers tr:nth-child(even){background-color: #f2f2f2;}\n\n#customers tr:hover {background-color: #ddd;}\n\n#customers th {\n  padding-top: 12px;\n  padding-bottom: 12px;\n  text-align: left;\n  background-color: #F24945;\n  color: white;\n}\n<\/style>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><th>Type of Product<\/th><th>Average Prices<\/th><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Basic (Electricity, Heating, Cooling, Water, Garbage)<\/strong><\/td><td>1,505.97 DKK (for 85m2 Apartment)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Mobile Phone Monthly Plan with Calls and 10GB+ Data<\/strong><\/td><td>129.57 DKK<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Internet<\/strong><\/td><td>255.17 DKK (60 Mbps or More, Cable\/ADSL, Unlimited Data)<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Transportation_expenses\"><\/span>Transportation expenses<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When calculating the cost of living in Denmark, you need to factor in transportation expenses, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are the expenses you can expect:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<style>\n#customers {\n  font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\n  border-collapse: collapse;\n  width: 100%;\n}\n\n#customers td, #customers th {\n  border: 1px solid #ddd;\n  padding: 8px;\n}\n\n#customers tr:nth-child(even){background-color: #f2f2f2;}\n\n#customers tr:hover {background-color: #ddd;}\n\n#customers th {\n  padding-top: 12px;\n  padding-bottom: 12px;\n  text-align: left;\n  background-color: #F24945;\n  color: white;\n}\n<\/style>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><th>Type of Product<\/th><th>Average Prices<\/th><\/tr><tr><td><strong>One-way Ticket (Local Transport)<\/strong><\/td><td>24.00 DKK<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Monthly Pass<\/strong><\/td><td>600.00 DKK<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Taxi Start (Normal Tariff)<\/strong><\/td><td>50.00 DKK<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Taxi 1km (Normal Tariff)<\/strong><\/td><td>15.00 DKK<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Taxi 1hour Waiting (Normal Tariff)<\/strong><\/td><td>450.00 DKK<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Gasoline (1 liter)<\/strong><\/td><td>14.23 DKK per litre<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Tariffs of vignettes depend on the emission class of the vehicle you drive, as well as the duration of the Eurovignette.

However, students from the EU\/EEA and permanent residents are exempt from tuition fees. For other international students, tuition costs range from 46,559.63 DKK to 139,678.89 DKK annually, depending on the chosen program, along with an application fee of around \u00a388.75.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Living costs vary based on personal lifestyle choices. Although Denmark&#8217;s overall cost of living is elevated, students can find rental accommodations for under 3879.97 DKK per month in areas outside Copenhagen. It is advisable to allocate between \u00a3177.50 and 2328.02 DKK monthly for groceries and about 388.03 DKK for transportation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In summary, if you reside and study outside of Copenhagen, your monthly budget should range from 5819.95 DKK to 6983.96 DKK, while living and studying in the capital city would require approximately 9311.89 DKK per month.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"cta_container_holder obf\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"title\">Moving to another country?
