Updated salary statistics applicable to applications submitted from 1 July 2024

SIRI uses salary statistics made by The Confederation of Danish Employers (DA) in the case processing of applications to assess whether an offered salary is customary according to Danish standards.

An updated version of the salary statistics has been released, which contains information from the 1st quarter of 2024. The updated salary statistics will be used in the case processing of applications submitted from 1 July 2024. 

The salary statistics are updated every quarter, and we expect the next update to be effective from 1 October 2024.

What does the update mean for you as an applicant?

If you apply for a residence and work permit after 30 June 2024, your application will be assessed based on the salary statistics for the first quarter of 2024. If you have applied between 1 April and 30 June 2024, your application will be assessed based on the salary statistics for the 4th quarter of 2023.

Where can I find the updated salary statistics that apply from 1 July 2024?

You can find the updated salary statistics on the Words and Concepts page, Danish standards for salary
