If you plan to apply for a residence permit or an extension of a residence permit based on work or studies around 1 January 2013, please note that processing fees are regulated on 1 January 2013.
If you wish to apply before the fees are regulated, you must create a Case Order ID and submit your application before 1 January 2013. It is not possible to create a Case Order ID with the 2013 fee prior to 1 January 2013. This means that if you wish to submit your application after 1 January 2013, it is important that you create your Case Order ID on 1 January 2013 or later.
In other words, it is the date on which you submit your application to the Danish Agency for Labour Retention and International Recruitment, to the Danish police, or at a Danish diplomatic mission, which decides the amount of the fee. If you have paid less than the required amount, your application will be rejected, that is, it will not be processed.
The processing fees for applying for a residence permit are regulated every year on 1 January.
