The special health insurance card is issued to citizens who do not live in Denmark but are socially insured in the country. The special health insurance card gives you the right to use the Danish healthcare services on the same terms as citizens who live in Denmark.

If you work in Denmark but live in another EU/EEA country (i.e. EU member states plus Iceland, Liechtenstein, and Norway) or Switzerland, you will, as a rule, be entitled to the special health insurance card and to the blue European health insurance card.

Special health insurance cards are issued for a maximum of two years.
