Terminated EU residence as a posted worker
Read about what you should do, if you are no longer a posted worker of a company in the EU.
If you have been granted a residence document based on your status as a posted worker and you lose your job with the EU company, regardless of whether you were fired or resigned yourself, your grounds for residence will normally have ended.
Be aware that your rights depend on whether you are an EU citizen or citizen of a country outside the EU, the EEA or Switzerland.
If you leave Denmark in connection with losing your job, you need not do anything about your grounds for residence. All you need to do is inform the Civil Registration System that you will be leaving Denmark. You can do this online at lifeindenmark.dk (requires MitID).
If you wish to stay in Denmark, you must contact SIRI for clarification of your grounds for residence.
If you believe that you meet the requirements for other grounds for residence, for example, as an employee or self-supporting person, you must submit an application on these grounds.
