/ DANGDI / DANGDI / DANGDI /Foreign residents planning to get Danish citizenship may soon face harder language requirements. Denmark's governing parties are calling for stricter Danish language tests for citizenship applicants.
The proposal follows recent political discussions and media reporting. These reports highlighted potential gaps in the current testing system. As a result, politicians want to raise the Danish language bar for future naturalisation applicants.
This shift directly impacts foreign workers, students, and families living in Denmark. Anyone planning to apply for citizenship long-term may need higher Danish proficiency in the future. The report was published by CPH Post.
