As cross-border commuters in the Øresund region move over the border daily, it is important to stay informed of the respective national restrictions. Here, we have collected links and information relevant to cross-border commuters from both Danish and Swedish authorities.

To limit the spread of covid-19, the Danish government has introduced travel restrictions and border controls by the Danish borders. This also affects the border between Denmark and Sweden. Read more what this means for travellers and cross-border-workers in the Oresund region.

British citizens who live and work in the Öresund region before the 1st January 2021 will retain their rights to live and work in Sweden and Denmark on the same terms as before Brexit. However, starting in 2021, new documentation will be required.

If you work and pay tax in Denmark, you must also declare tax there. You can do this easily online on the website for the Danish Skattestyrelsen with a NemID/MitID.

The right to work in Denmark depends on your citizenship. Citizens who are not EU/EEA citizens must be extra aware of the rules on work permits and residence permits.
