Full tax liability
You have full tax liability in Denmark when you move to Denmark and take up residence here. You may also have full tax liability in Denmark if you stay in Denmark for a longer period without having a permanent residence.
The general rule is that salary income is taxed in the country where you work. You must therefore pay tax on your salary from DTU and any other income from Denmark. You must also generally pay tax on income from abroad, but it depends on the specific circumstances and the double taxation treaty between Denmark and the country in question. Corporate HR recommends that you contact the Danish Tax Agency for more information.
Upon arrival you must order your tax card online. You can find further help and guidance about moving to Denmark on skat.dk.
The Danish Tax Agency automatically collects virtually all the information it needs to calculate tax. There is little information you will have to declare. In mid-March, the Danish Tax Agency issues a tax assessment notice for the previous year based on the information it has received. You are responsible for ensuring that the information is correct, and must report any errors or omissions to the Danish Tax Agency. This must be done within four weeks of receiving the assessment notice.
