If you are going to graduate from your higher education after the 1st October 2022, then these rules will apply to you.
- The unemployment benefits period is reduced to one year
- If you didn’t have a job while studying, then you need to show a certain level of Danish to qualify for unemployment benefits (the level is still to be decided)
- If you do not have children, then after 3 months your unemployment benefits will be reduced based on your age (under 30 years old – 9,514 dkk before tax; over 30 years old – 12,018 dkk before tax)
- This applies to EU citizens (including Danish) and Non-EU who have the right to work in Denmark.
