Denmark is planning to retain talented students in the country after their studies
The Danish Agency for International Recruitment and Integration recently announced a plan to keep talent in Denmark and stop the deepening of labour shortages. The program permits foreign nationals pursuing studies in regions with a labour shortage to stay and work in Denmark after their first study permit expires.
According
to the Danish Agency of International Recruitment and Integration. The scheme
allows certain foreign nationals who lose their grounds for residence and who
are enrolled in or undergoing education in an area where there is a labour shortage to continue staying, studying, and working in Denmark.”
Beginning
on July 1, 2024, the program will assist foreign nationals who have finished
school programs for occupations driven by demand but were forced to leave
Denmark because they were denied the right to remain in the country, according
to SIRI. According to SIRI's announcement, foreign nationals may be
able to prolong their right of residence in Denmark if their residence permits
were not renewed between July 1, 2020, and June 30, 2024.
The Danish Agency of International Recruitment and Integration also stated “Among other things, it will be a condition for obtaining a residence permit that the foreign national’s original residence permit was refused extension or revoked, or their right of residence under EU rules was found to be expired, in the period from July 1, 2020, to June 30, 2024.”
Foreign
students who finish their studies can apply for residence permits in Denmark,
which will allow them to look for work and stay in the nation longer. These
licenses can be granted for a maximum of six months. The nation wants to hold
on to its skilled labor force, especially the highly educated and trained ones,
as SIRI does not report on present shortages. The new scheme is expected to be
officially implemented soon.
