Dependent Visa
If you have close relatives in Denmark, you can apply for a residence permit on the grounds of family reunification.
Provided that certain conditions are met, family reunification can be granted to:
- Spouses, registered partners and cohabiting partners
- Children under the age of 15
If you are granted a residence permit, it will be a temporary one. You can apply for an extension of your residence permit, and after a certain period of time, you can apply for a permanent residence permit. You must still meet the conditions for your original residence permit.
Normally, a residence permit as a family reunified person gives you the right to work in Denmark.
