Germany Extends Border Checks with Denmark Through March 2027

If you travel overland from Denmark into Germany, bring your passport and residence permit. Germany and Poland have extended temporary internal land border controls through late March 2027.

Under EU Schengen rules, border authorities will continue conducting selective identity checks. Officers check vehicles and cross-border passenger trains at land crossings. This includes the land border between Germany and Denmark.

According to Global Banking and Finance, controls will remain active through late March 2027. Selective spot checks can cause delays for train and car travelers entering Germany. Anyone traveling without proper documents may face boarding issues or border refusal. Chinese students, workers, families, and tourists should carry valid travel documents at all times.
