On May 15, 2025, the Danish Agency for International Recruitment and Integration (SIRI) published four new online application forms for applicants for European Union residence in Denmark.
Key Changes
- With the new online forms, it will be much easier to apply using a mobile phone or tablet.
- Digital applications may be processed faster.
- Applicants continue to be able to submit physical applications.
SIRI has moved the online form OD1 to a new IT system. At the same time the form has been divided into four new separate forms:
- OD1A – Application for EU residence, for a citizen of EU/EEA/Switzerland or a posted service provider;
- OD1B – Application for EU residence as a family member to an EU/EEA/Swiss citizen;
- OD1C – Application for permanent EU residence;
- OD1D – Application to change the grounds for EU residence
The four new forms contain a number of changes making it easier to use the forms:
- The forms in the new IT system have been optimized for mobile phones and tablets;
- The signed sworn declaration has been removed, making it possible to sign the application either when appearing at SIRI (OD1A and OD1B) or using MitID (OD1C and OD1D);
- The division into four separate forms makes each form simpler and faster to complete;
- After submission applicants can log on to their user profile in the new system and see the completed and submitted online application.
Those who have already begun to complete an application in the old system can continue to complete and submit their application in the old system for a limited period of time.
Applicants using the new system can log in and view their online application for up to 30 days after it has been submitted.
