Let’s see in brief how the system works!

As already mentioned above, Denmark Green Card Visa is a Points Based System and each candidate gets an equal opportunity to score under five different areas such as:

1)         Age: Age of the applicant plays an important role as the country gives preference to young & ambitious applicants. In total, 15 points may be earned. Those between the age group of 35 and 40 may earn 10 points. On the other hand, aspirants of 35 years or below are likely to score 15 points.

2)         Education: Applicants may score the maximum for their education qualification. Each candidate may earn up to 105 points. You must have a Bachelors Degree equivalent to Danish degree which will be assessed by the CIRCUS–the authorized body that operates under the Danish Ministry of Science, Technology, and Innovation. You may easily earn some bonus points for a degree obtained for a top education institution, or for having a degree in a stream that helps you qualify for occupation mentioned on the Positive List.

3)         Language: An applicant may earn up to 30 points for his language proficiency which includes the demonstrated knowledge of Swedish, Danish, English, Norwegian or German. An applicant may score points for both the Scandinavian language, i.e., Swedish, Norwegian or Danish and either German or English, but he cannot score for both German and English, or two or more Scandinavian languages.

4)         Experience: You may earn up to 15 points. These are awarded on the basis of the number of years you have spent working as a researcher or in an occupation that is at present is in shortage of professionals in Denmark. If both the above conditions are not applicable, you may still score points for any other occupation.

Points division is as follow:

• 15 points – for those applicants who have worked as a Researcher for three to five years or in an occupation mentioned on the Positive List.
• 10 points – for those applicants who have worked as a Researcher for 1 to 2 years or in a job mentioned on the Positive List.
• 5 points – for those who have an experience of 3 to 5 years in any other occupation.

5)         Adaptability: You may earn up to 15 points only if you have either studied or worked in the European Economic Area (EEA) or in the European Area (EA). You can earn score either for your education qualification or for your work experience not for the both.
