Overview
All applicants who require a visa to Denmark and Countries Represented by Denmark must fill in their visa application and pay the visa fee online using ApplyVisa.um.dk. Please see information on ApplyVisa.um.dk about how to apply and pay online. For more information on the application procedure and requirements, visit the designated Danish embassy website in the relevant country."

The embassy fee and the fee to the Danish Visa Application Centre (VFS) must be paid in addition to the fee to The Danish Immigration Service.
If you plan on making a short-term visit (up to 90 days) to the Faroe Islands or Greenland, you must have a visa that is valid for entry into the Faroe Islands and/or Greenland, if you come from a country with a visa requirement.
If you have a diplomatic passport, service passport, official passport or special passport, you can be visa-free even if you are a citizen of a country with a visa requirement.
Citizens of Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden are free to enter, reside and work on the Faroe Islands and in Greenland.
A visa to enter Denmark or another Schengen country is not valid for entry into the Faroe Islands or Greenland. Neither Greenland nor the Faroe Islands are members of the EU and they are not parties to the Schengen Agreement.
If you need a visa to enter the Faroe Islands or Greenland, you will most likely also need a Schengen visa, since most travel to these two countries goes through a Schengen country, such as Denmark. -
