The Process of Marrying in Denmark

The Process of marrying in Denmark

Denmark is known for offering a fast, efficient, and stress-free process for international couples looking to get married. With its minimal bureaucracy and internationally recognized marriage certificate, it’s no wonder why Denmark is one of the top wedding destinations for couples worldwide. However, even with a straightforward system, there are ways to make the process even quicker, especially if you’re eager to secure your wedding date.

At Just Married in Denmark, we’ve helped thousands of couples tie the knot and have gathered valuable insights on how to expedite the process.

Basic required documents for all couples

Valid passport or EU ID card

Signed Declaration of Truth

Signed Power of Attorney

Here is a simple version of the process

If you’re considering an international destination for your wedding, Denmark should be at the top of your list. Here are five compelling reasons why Denmark is a fantastic choice for couples from all around the world.

1. Choose a wedding planner / Agency

While you can arrange everything yourself, using a wedding agency like Just Married in Denmark can save you time and unnecessary headaches. We know the system inside out, and our expertise allows us to navigate the legal requirements and paperwork swiftly. By letting a professional agency handle the details, you can avoid delays and ensure that everything is done correctly from the start. See our available packages.

2. Follow the instructions

Once you’ve decided to work with us, it’s crucial to follow our instructions closely. At Just Married in Denmark, we guide you through every step of the process and provide clear directions. Sticking to these guidelines will prevent mistakes or missing documents that could slow down your application. Trusting your agency’s experience will make the process much smoother.

3. Stay organized

The faster you act, the quicker you can get married. As soon as you decide to marry in Denmark, start gathering the necessary documents and submit them promptly. Delays in providing required documents or signatures can result in longer wait times for approval. Stay organized and move swiftly to keep the process on track.

4. Be open to different wedding locations

To speed up the process of getting married in Denmark, it’s important to stay open to various wedding venues. Denmark offers a range of City Hall locations, and some may have shorter waiting times than others. By being flexible with where you say “I do,” you can increase your chances of securing an earlier wedding date, ensuring your special day happens even faster.

5. Be flexible with the wedding date

Another way to speed up the process is to be flexible with your wedding date, particularly the day of the week. While many couples prefer weekends, opting for a weekday ceremony can often result in quicker availability. Weekday weddings in Denmark are just as beautiful, and with fewer crowds, they can offer a more intimate experience.

How long does it take to get married in Denmark?

If your documents are in order and your application is submitted correctly the first time, you can expect approval within 5 working days. However, if you’re on a tight timeline, it’s crucial to ensure that everything goes smoothly, and that starts with getting your application approved on the first submission.

If the Agency of Family Law (AFL) has any concerns about your application or feels that the documentation is incomplete, they won’t approve it. Instead, they will request clarifications or additional documents, which will lead to delays.

During peak seasons, this delay could extend up to 8 weeks before you receive a further response or approval, which can be a significant setback if you’re working with a strict timeline.

To avoid these issues, choosing a reputable wedding agency is the most important step you can take to ensure your application is handled correctly and promptly.
