Denmark is home to the worldâs two oldest operating amusement parks Bakken and Tivoli. The Lego company, whose name comes from âleg godtâ, which means âplay wellâ, was invented in 1932 in the small town of Billund by carpenter Ole Kirk Christiansen. And in keeping with forever young, bicycling is prominent in the country, with more bicycles than people!
Before discovering all the unique places to visit, you may want to plan ahead for any unexpected medical event or other issues before starting out on your adventures. Look into the various travel insurance plans for your vacation or business travels.
Travel Insurance Requirements for Denmark
International travelers visiting Denmark will need to have travel insurance with a minimum coverage of 30,000 (about $50,000 USD) to satisfy the Schengen Visa requirements.
For non-U.S. residents, travel insurance must be purchased before the issuance of your Schengen Visa. With several travel Insurance plans to choose from, VisitorsCoveragecan help you decide which one is right for your needs.
We also have several travel medical plans with emergency medical evacuation, comprehensive coverage, and more. We also have plans that cover the Covid-19 requirements.
If youâre an American citizen traveling from the U.S. needing to cancel, postpone or cut short your original travel plans for any reason, including Covid-19-related issues, trip insurance with Cancel For Any Reason (CFAR) coverage may be a better option. For international and non-US residents, the best fit may be International Travel Medical Insurance.
