Updated income statistics applicable to applications submitted from 1 October 2024

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

An updated version of the income statistics has been released which contains information from the second quarter of 2024. The updated income statistics will be used in the case processing of applications submitted from 1 October 2024.

The income statistics are updated every quarter, and we expect the next update to be effective from 1 January 2025.

What does the update mean for you as an applicant?

If you apply for a residence and work permit after 30 September 2024, your application will be assessed based on the income statistics for the second quarter of 2024. If you have applied between 1 July and 30 September 2024, your application will be assessed based on the salary statistics for the first quarter of 2024.

Where can I find the updated income statistics that apply from 1 October 2024?

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