Working Holiday in Denmark for Argentines (2026)
Requirements, application steps and travel preparation.
Step 1
Check requirements and prepare your language skills
Passport and nationality
Argentine and habitually resident in Argentina
The permit ends no later than three months before passport expiry.
Language requirement
This detail still needs confirmation for Argentine applicants.
References: ARDK1
Explore Danish courses →Documents and previous participation
Printed form and in-person filing
Use Argentina’s WH1. Do not apply with the online form or from another country. Check all-passport-page copies and required translations.
A working month is not a block of 30 days
SIRI counts calendar months with reported salary. Plan work around that rule even if you do only a few shifts.
References: ARDK1
Municipal Danish lessons are another option
The official page describes free municipal lessons, subject to address registration and a possible deposit. Ask the municipality before choosing a private course; compare conditions and schedules.

Language courses · commercial service
Prepare your language skills before travelling.
Through ViveCampus, you can get quotes for language courses with international-student discounts. Offers may vary by your country of origin and destination. Request a personalized quote to confirm available discounts and the final price. Booking a course does not guarantee a visa.
Step 2
Apply for the Working Holiday visa
Annual quota
150 permits per annual cycle
March–February cycle: up to 75 from March to August; September–February can reach the annual total of 150. These are not 150 extra permits.
References: ARDK1
Application dates
March–February cycle
The cycle has two periods. Confirm the next announcement and Buenos Aires appointment; no 2027 date or hour is assumed.
References: ARDK1
Visa fee
DKK 3,060 SIRI fee + other charges
The SIRI charge excludes other consular or application-centre fees. Confirm the appointment first, then follow the official payment sequence.
How to prepare your application
Book VFS Buenos Aires first and then pay following official instructions. The Argentine route uses printed WH1 and personal filing; it is not an online application.
- Check Argentine conditions and book filing at VFS Buenos Aires through the official channel.
- After appointment confirmation, create the case order ID and follow SIRI and consular-channel payment instructions.
- Complete and sign Argentina’s printable WH1; bring the required originals, copies and receipts.
- File in person and complete official biometrics. Await SIRI’s decision; this website receives neither biometrics nor application files.
SIRI states normally 3 months, up to 4 if additional information is needed. Plan around the longer estimate; it is not guaranteed and excludes appointment waiting time. ARDK1

Step 3
If my visa is approved
Wait for a written decision. Before booking, check your entry deadline and the conditions of the permit you receive.
Length of stay
Up to 1 year from entry
Shorter passport, insurance or return-flight validity can shorten the permit. Check dates before booking.

Step 4
Get ready for my trip
Funds for your stay
DKK 15,000 + return flight or DKK 5,000 extra
Without a return flight, show DKK 20,000 total. Own statement up to 30 days old; multiple statements need the same date. Another person’s balance is insufficient.

Mark what you have reviewed. This helps you organise your trip; it is not a requirements assessment.
