Despite new high, Portuguese emigration to Denmark tends to stabilise in 2023
Inês Vidigal
According to data from Denmark Statistik, 1,818 Portuguese people entered Denmark in 2023. This Danish institution counted a total of 95,080 entries of foreigners in the country, with the Portuguese representing 1.9% of that total. +

Although the number of Portuguese entering Danish territory has once again reached a new high for this century, for the fourth year in a row, the trend is towards stabilisation with entries growing by just 0.3% from 2022 to 2023.From 2019 to 2020 there was an increase of 13.6%, from 2020 to 2021 the growth was 66.2% and from 2021 to 2022 was 12.6%. Despite this evolution, Portuguese emigration to Denmark continues to represent a very small fraction of both immigration to this country (1.9%) and total Portuguese emigration (around 1%).
