Updated income statistics applicable to applications submitted from 1 April 2025

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 with information from the fourth quarter of 2024 is now available and applies to applications submitted from 1 April 2025. We update the income statistics each quarter, and we expect the next update will apply from 1 July 2025.

What does the change mean for you as an applicant?

If you apply for a residence and work permit after 31 March 2025, your application will be evaluated according to the income statistics from the fourth quarter of 2024. If you have applied between 1 January and 31 March 2025, your application will be evaluated according to the income statistics from the third quarter of 2024. 

Where can I find the updated income statistics that apply from 1 April 2025?

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