Denmark has expanded its Positive Lists for Skilled Work and Higher Education, opening 162 job titles for foreign workers seeking residence and work permits. Effective January 1, 2025, the updated lists aim to attract highly skilled professionals and address labour shortages in key sectors.
The Positive List for Skilled Work now includes 48 job titles, reflecting a decrease from previous years as the Danish government seeks to balance labour market needs with domestic workforce development.
However, the Positive List for Higher Education has significantly increased, expanding to 162 job titles to accommodate the growing demand for highly educated professionals in various fields.
The updated lists provide a clear pathway for foreign workers to obtain residence and work permits in Denmark, provided they meet specific requirements and possess the necessary qualifications and experience.
Including a job title on the Positive List streamlines the application process and ensures that foreign workers can contribute to the Danish economy and society.
The Danish government's decision to update the Positive Lists reflects its commitment to attracting and retaining skilled foreign workers while promoting the development of the domestic workforce.
The expanded opportunities for highly educated professionals are expected to attract a diverse pool of talent to Denmark and contribute to the country's economic growth and innovation.
