Hi all,
I am in UK and applying for Denmark green card.
I have question regarding health insurance, do I have to buy health insurance when applying for green card from UK? if yes, can i take health insurance for 3 months?
another question: after registering and getting CPR, is healthcare free for green card holders in Denmark?

Hi orchit, yes health insurance is free in Denmark, well not exactly free as you pay heavy taxes in Denmark. The moment you apply for CPR card you will be assigned one GP, like in UK. You should remember that some time it takes around 2 weeks to get the card, but then u just need health cover for first 14 days only.
