The necessary documentation must be submitted in the form of original documents (which will be returned by registered mail) or of certified true copies.

Certified true copies are copies which have been endorsed on each copy to confirm their authenticity. Embassies, police, Notary Publics and the authority who has issued the document can carry out the endorsement. Copies certified by private individuals are not acceptable. The National Board of Health may in some cases require original documents.

If you submit original documents you must also submit a copy of each document. If you submit certified copies and wish to have these returned to you, you must state this by checking the box below the application form. If so, you must submit an identical set of confirmed copies i.e. you must provide a copy of the certified documents. All copies must be in A4 format and without paper clips, folders, binders etc.

Documents must be translated into English or Danish. However, documents in German, Norwegian or Swedish do not need to be translated.

The translation must be carried out by:

1. The educational institution or the issuing authority or
2. A state-authorized translator. Translator’s name and stamp must be legible. Should the stamp not be in Danish, English, Norwegian or Swedish a state-authorized translation of the stamp is required. The translation must be accompanied by the document in the original language sealed together by the translator. The National Board of Health may in some cases accept other translations.
