Starting from July 1, 2024, international students in Denmark who are eligible to work part-time can now work up to 90 hours per month. Previously, Danish authorities required foreign workers to extend their stay in the country before their current residence and work permit expired, with the condition that their work stay did not exceed 90 days within the last 365 days.

Denmark boasts a robust job market with low unemployment rates, making it an attractive destination for those seeking part-time employment. The most popular industries for part-time jobs include retail, hospitality, and customer service. Denmark also offers a relatively high minimum wage, currently around 110 DKK (€14.75) per hour, with typical working hours limited to 15-20 hours per week for international students. 

International students can apply for a job search permit under the following conditions:

1. The validity of their student residence permit has been shortened due to passport expiration.

2. They have either been granted a 6-month period to seek employment alongside their residence permit or have completed their educational program in Denmark within the specified study period.
