Denmark opens a new work route letting certified employers hire staff from selected countries at a lower salary level

Denmark has introduced a new immigration pathway under which employers holding certification can recruit foreign nationals from a selected list of countries. The minimum salary for this route is DKK 322,000 per year, which is lower than the salary levels required under Denmark's other main work schemes. It is aimed at workers hired from outside Denmark by approved employers.
