20% of your expenses may be refundable

Denmark has one of the highest VAT rates in the world (25 %). Foreign organizations and businesses visiting Denmark will therefore incur Danish VAT on their expenses during their time here in Denmark, which could be at a quite significant level. However, the Danish VAT does not need to be a cost, as it will likely be possible to recover the VAT incurred (at least partly).

VAT refund procedure

The VAT refund applications must be submitted to the tax authorities in Denmark within specific deadlines. Listing the invoices (original) and meeting the authorities’ application requirements can be a time consuming and complex task aggravated by language differences. As a result, many companies end up not claiming all the VAT that they are entitled to.
