The Danish Immigration Service and the Danish Agency for International Recruitment and Integration (SIRI) have announced that they are moving all digital application forms and invitation forms to a new IT system on newtodenmark.dk. Users can still complete their digital application or invitation in the old system.
What to Expect
- The switch to the new system on newtodenmark.dk will take place gradually over the next three to four months.
- The authorities will move the digital application forms and invitation forms one by one.
- When an applicant starts a new application or visa invitation, they should follow the instructions on the relevant application page on newtodenmark.dk.
- Individuals who have already started filling out an application or visa invitation in the old system, can continue to fill out and submit the application or invitation in the old system for a period of time, following the instructions on the relevant application page on newtodenmark.dk and in the digital form.
New System Details
The digital forms look different in the new system, and they will work in a slightly different way. In the new system, applicants can log in and view their submitted digital application or visa invitation for up to 30 days after it has been submitted.
Another change is that for the two-part applications, employers or agents only need to provide the applicant’s email address to give them access to part two, and will thus no longer need to send the reference number and password to the applicant.
