What documents do I need?

The core set is a valid passport, the completed application form, recent photos to spec, evidence of funds, proof of travel medical insurance, your travel itinerary, and proof of where you'll stay. Some routes ask for extra documents.

How long is the Business Visa valid and how long can I stay?

You can stay up to 90 days per visit, while the Business Visa remains valid for 365 days from the date of issue. Overstaying can lead to fines or future entry bans, so track your permitted dates carefully.

What is the approval rate for this route?

Based on regional patterns, roughly 48.4% of Jordan Business Visa applications to Denmark are approved. Completeness and strong documentation move that number the most.

Can I extend my Business Visa once I'm in Denmark?

Extension policies vary. Contact the Denmark immigration authority within the country to inquire about extending your stay.

What happens if my application is denied?

A refusal usually comes with a stated ground. You can address the gap and reapply, or follow the embassy's appeal route. Note that the fee is normally non-refundable.

Do I need travel insurance?

Yes. As a Schengen destination, Denmark requires travel medical insurance with a minimum of €30,000 in coverage, valid across all Schengen states for the entire stay.

Can I work on a Business Visa?

Business visas allow meetings, conferences, and negotiations, but not direct employment with a Denmark entity. For employment, apply for a work visa.

What is the difference between work visa and business visa?

Business visas are for short-term visits (meetings, trade fairs, contract signing) and don't allow paid employment. Work visas are for employed positions on a contract, longer-term.
