Denmark’s visa application process is straightforward. Denmark issues Schengen visas, which are valid in 15 countries. It is difficult for foreigners, those who are not Nordic or European citizens, to obtain authorization to work in Denmark except in fields for which there is a shortage of qualified applicants. Students entering Denmark are permitted to work part-time during the course of their studies and full-time during summer break periods.

As a signatory of the Schengen Agreement, Denmark issues short-term Schengen visas, which are valid for stays lasting less than three months. Schengen visas, however, are not valid for entering Denmark to work or study. The Schengen visa allows visitors to enter and travel freely among the 15 member countries: Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain and Sweden. If visiting another Schengen country in addition to Denmark, apply for the Schengen visa at the diplomatic mission of the primary destination country. If there is no primary destination, the applicant should apply at the diplomatic mission of the country he/she will enter first.

This is just a sample of what you'll find in the complete Denmark guide.
