Indfødsretsprøven - Naturalisation test

Indfødsretsprøven is a written test about Danish society, culture and history.

Indfødsretsprøven is a written test about Danish society, culture and history. If you want to become a Danish citizen, you must pass this test. It takes place twice a year (summer and winter).

Indfødsretsprøven consists of 45 written questions about Danish society, Danish culture and Danish history. 35 of the questions are based on the study material.

There are also 5 current questions that are based on coverage in Danish news media of Danish social conditions, politics and cultural events. The current questions cover events that have been of special interest to Danish news media at some point during the six months leading up to the test.

Finally, there are 5 unprepared questions about Danish values. These questions are made to test whether people applying for Danish citizenship have taken Danish values to heart.

In order to pass the test, you must have 36 correct answers, and 4 of the correct answers must be from the unprepared questions.
