The processing time in visa cases is 30 days, when all required documentation has been provided.
We are aware of the inconvenience this may cause, but assure that we are working hard to bring down processing time for all applications. Business applications are prioritised. In cases where processing requires further enquiries or submission to the Danish Immigration Service, the maximum processing time is up to 45 calendar days.
Please make sure you book an appointment to submit your application as soon as possible.
The case processing time is calculated from the day the Embassy in London register the application in the visa system. It is not calculated from the time you apply online or submit the application at the Embassy in Madrid
Please find information about the visa application procedure here. For visa application in regard to round-trip bookings, it is a requirement to show sufficient funds to purchase a return ticket. The Danish Mission recommends that you do not buy a plane ticket before your visa has been approved.
