Claim Your Points

Educational level

Your educational level will be assessed after it has been converted to its Danish equivalent for comparison. This is done as academic degrees vary from country to country, even if they are called by the same name. The assessment of your educational level is carried out by CIRIUS, a body under the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation.

In order to receive points for educational level, you must, as a minimum, have the equivalent of a Danish Bachelor's degree. You will only be given points for one educational level. Points are given as follows:
• Bachelor's degree/Graduated from medium-length education: 30 points.
• Bachelor's degree followed by one-year Master's degree: 50 points.
• Master's degree: 60 points.
• PhD: 80 points.
You will be given bonus point if you graduated from a university which is internationally recognized for its high academic level according to the latest THES-QS World Ranking. Points are given as follows:
• Top 400: 5 points.
• Top 200: 10 points.
• Top 100: 15 points.

You will be given 10 bonus points if your education qualifies you to work in a field where Denmark is currently experiencing a shortage of qualified professionals. You can find these fields on the Positive List.

You can be given a maximum of 105 points for your educational level.


Language skills

Your language skills will be given points based on a four-level system modeled after the official Danish language proficiency tests for foreigners (the Danish Language Test, Levels 1, 2 and 3 and the Study Test in Danish as a Second Language).

In order to be given points for language skills, you must document that you have passed an exam in either Danish, Swedish, Norwegian, English or German at a level corresponding to at least Danish Language Test, Level 1 (Prøve i Dansk 1). You can only receive points for one Scandinavian language and for either English or German. As such, you can receive points for both Swedish and English, or both Danish and German, but not for both Danish and Norwegian, or for both English and German.

Here is a list of foreign language exams with their corresponding Danish level. Only the exams listed qualify for points. Other exams do not qualify for points.

As an alternative to a language exam, you can document your language skills with a statement from a previous employer attesting that you have used Danish, Swedish, Norwegian, English or German on the job for at least one year, or by presenting documentation that you have completed at least one year of studies at a higher educational programme which was taught in one of these languages. This will be accepted as a level corresponding to that of Study Test in Danish as a Second Language (Studieprøven). Points are given as follows:
• Level corresponding to Danish Language Test, Level 1 (Prøve i Dansk 1): 5 points.
• Level corresponding to Danish Language Test, Level 2 (Prøve i Dansk 2): 10 points.
• Level corresponding to Danish Language Test, Level 3 (Prøve i Dansk 3): 15 points.
• Level corresponding to Study Test in Danish as a Second Language (Studieprøven) or higher: 20 points
You can be given a maximum of 30 points for your language skills.

IMMIGRATION TO DENMARK FROM PAKISTAN

At present, over 18000 Pakistani people live in Denmark and constitute the 4th biggest minority group in the Denmark.

In spite of the reality that over the last 35 years Pakistanis in Denmark have worked hard to mix socially and culturally into Danish society. But young citizens from Pakistan certainly consider themselves to be more Pakistani than Danish. Most of the people from Pakistan who have established in Denmark come from Pakistan's small towns. They prioritize Danish education and want the best likely future for their children. Today the proportion of Pakistan-Danish youth who enroll for higher education is about as high as Denmark's national average.

These days, Denmark welcomes Pakistanis more warmly then ever because they realize the potential of Pakistani skilled workers. Pakistanis have their own culture and community in Denmark. They are sharing their abilities and skills with Danish to boost the Danish economy. Pakistanis are wondering to find the precise information for Denmark Green Card.

Denmark has warmly opened its borders for Pakistanis. It is now easiest than ever for Pakistani citizens to migrate to Denmark from Pakistan as Denmark has introduced a very easy points based system for immigration. This immigration policy of Denmark, which is also known as Danish Green Card Scheme is easy due to following factors.

1. IELTS is not mandatory for Immigration.
2. Previous earnings for immigration are not required.
3. A graduate from a Pakistani recognized university also qualifies for Immigration.
4. Special points for age under 33.

Pakistan Denmark relations have been boosted since last few years and Denmark wants to see more Pakistanis for the growth of its economy. So immigration to Denmark is a good option for those Pakistanis who want to get immigration in a developed country.
