Section 02
The scheme for reacquiring Danish citizenship closed on 30 June 2026, and new requests can no longer be submitted. If you filed before the deadline, your case is still being processed and we will guide you through it. If you missed the deadline, we will assess your options for obtaining Danish citizenship through naturalisation.
The scheme allowed you to regain Danish citizenship if you had previously been a Danish citizen and lost it under the old Danish citizenship law. You must not have been sentenced to a prison sentence since losing your citizenship. If you were over 22 years old when you lost your citizenship and were born abroad, you also had to have resided in Denmark for at least 3 months or a total of at least 1 year before turning 22.
To be covered by the scheme, you generally needed to meet these conditions:
Additional requirements applied if you had children:
Important things to remember:
This is a very brief explanation, and there may be more nuances and exceptions. It is therefore important that you check the information with the authorities or consult a lawyer.
You likely lost your Danish citizenship if you applied for foreign citizenship before September 1, 2015. This is in accordance with the previously applicable § 7 of the Danish Citizenship Act. If you applied for foreign citizenship after that date, you have retained your Danish citizenship.
During the five-year period from July 1, 2021 to June 30, 2026, it was possible to regain Danish citizenship by submitting a written application to the Ministry of Immigration and Integration. The scheme expired on June 30, 2026. If you submitted your application before the deadline, your case will still be processed - and we can advise you on your other routes to Danish citizenship.
A lawyer specialising in immigration law can be invaluable if you have a pending reacquisition case, or if you need to find another route to Danish citizenship. Here are some of the ways a lawyer can support you:
