Passport pages, identity cards, residence cards and deed polls translated into Danish, signed by a named professional translator and delivered by the next working day.
Passport and ID translation into Danish is needed less often than people expect, and that's worth knowing before you spend anything. A UK passport already prints its details in English and French, and Danish authorities handling CPR registration and residence permits work with it as it is. Where a Danish body does want your identity documents in Danish, VisaDocTranslation translates them in full and a named professional translator signs each one with their full name, contact details and qualifications, at £41.99 per page.
The usual candidates are the documents around the passport rather than the passport itself: deed polls, name-change records, observations pages and identity cards. See our Danish certified translation page for the service overview.
Denmark
Not accepted for
Usually not. UK passports print personal details in English and French, and Danish authorities, including those handling CPR registration and residence permits, generally accept documents in English. Only translate a passport if the body you're dealing with asks for a Danish version.
A passport is designed to be read at any border by people who don't share your language, which makes it the one document in your file that has already done most of its own translating. If you've been asked for 'a translation of your ID', check exactly what's meant: sometimes it's the observations page, sometimes a different document entirely, and occasionally it's a checklist written with a non-English passport in mind.
Typically for deed polls and other name-change evidence, passport observations pages, identity cards and residence documents, when a Danish lawyer, bank, court or municipality that works in Danish needs to read them. These are common uses, not a list of bodies that have approved our translations.
Name changes are the most common reason. If the name on your marriage certificate or birth certificate doesn't match your passport, the document linking the two is often what a Danish office needs to see, and it's the one most worth translating.
Yes. Deed polls, including enrolled deed polls and supporting declarations, are translated in full into Danish and signed by a named professional translator. Old and new names are kept exactly as written.
A deed poll is short and slightly theatrical ('absolutely and entirely renounce, relinquish and abandon the use of my said former name'), and that wording is translated faithfully, not paraphrased into something tidier. Signatures, witness details and any enrolment stamp are all covered. If a Danish body needs to connect the deed poll to other documents, order them together so the names are rendered consistently across the set.
Names, dates of birth, document numbers and machine-readable lines are reproduced exactly as they appear, never translated or re-spelled. Field labels, issuing authority details, stamps and handwritten notes are translated into Danish.
Consistency matters more than anything else in identity documents: one transposed digit and a Danish caseworker has two people where there should be one. We keep every character, including the chevrons in the machine-readable zone, and check them against the original before delivery.
Names are always copied from the document being translated, so if your certificates spell a name differently from your passport, the translations will too. Our article on names spelled differently across documents explains how to deal with that.
£41.99 per page, charged in pounds sterling and delivered by the next working day. There is no rush option, because a named translator reviews and signs every translation.
Most identity documents are one page. For a passport, upload only the data page and any pages with relevant endorsements or observations, so you're not paying to translate a stack of blank visa pages. The price includes the translation, the translator's signature, a quality check and 2 free revisions. Start on the online quote form and choose Denmark to see the total before you pay.
