On behalf of the Danish Immigration Embassy can issue visas to foreign citizens.

After the introduction of biometric passports from 1 January 2012, it has become more difficult to obtain a Danish passport abroad. Therefore, the Foreign Ministry has introduced a new way of obtaining passports for Danish nationals in Czech Republic.

Danes living in the Czech Republic, have the opportunity to apply for a passport during their stay in Denmark or a in the area with a passport-issuing diplomatic mission, such as Vienna or Berlin. There is a possibility to pick up the passport at another place than applied. When applying in Denmark it is possible to get the passport issued by all Danish missions abroad, including many honorary consulates.

Embassy in Prague can still issue emergency and extend existing passports.

Theft or loss of a valid passport must be reported to the police and a police report should be presented when applying for a new passport. Otherwise a passport is applied as normally. When reporting a lost passport to the police it should be noted that a report made by telephone and a registration number given on the basis of that might not be adequate proof to the insurance company. The report can be made in person at a police station so that a report of the crime is available in writing.

Holders of an EEA (EU Member States, Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway) or Swiss passport do not require a visa. Nationals from EU-countries as well as Switzerland and Liechtenstein may stay for an unlimited time. Holders of Czech Passports (European Union) do not need a visa for Denmark. There are no restrictions on the remaining validity of ones passport, providing the traveler leaves Italy before its expiry date.
