sending gifts to Denmark from outside the EU

If you send a gift to Denmark from outside The EU, you may be required to pay a duty.

If you as a private person send gifts to Denmark from outside the EU, you may be subject to paying duty to the Danish tax authorities.

As a rule, a private person must pay 25 per cent of the value of the present when the value exceeds DKK 360. The size of the duty depends on several factors such as the content type of the package as well as the value of the package.

You can read more on the website for the Danish tax authorities:
