Denmark: Electronic visa application system shutdown to cause delays

Technical problems have shut down Denmark’s electronic visa application system, according to a statement by the Ministry of Immigration, Integration and Housing, causing the following issues until further notice:

  • Visas are not being issued at Danish consular posts abroad or at the Danish Immigration Service (DIS);
  • Authorities are not able to use the Visa Information System to verify the information of travelers into and out of Denmark; and
  • Forms on the Danish Immigration Service website and the English version of the website are not currently accessible.
