🇿🇦 REGISTRATION OF SAFFERS IN DENMARK 🇿🇦

The Embassy of the Republic of South Africa in Copenhagen provides Consular Services to South African citizens residing, working, or travelling in the Kingdom of Denmark.

South African citizens are strongly encouraged to register their presence and contact details in Denmark as part of their long-term residence, travel plans, or security arrangements.

Such registration assists the Embassy in providing timely and effective support in the event of emergencies or unforeseen circumstances, including cases involving victims of crime, accidents, illness, death, natural or man-made disasters, or civil unrest. It also enables the Embassy to assist the Department of International Relations and Cooperation (DIRCO) in locating and verifying the status of citizens, and in facilitating communication with next-of-kin where necessary.

Registration is voluntary, and citizens may:

  • Register as individuals or as part of a group;

  • Update their personal or group profiles;

  • Receive important updates such as travel advisories, security alerts, and voting information;

  • De-register their profiles at any time.

The Embassy assures all citizens that personal information provided will be treated with the utmost confidentiality and safeguarded against unauthorized disclosure. The information will not be shared with third parties, including family members, without the citizen’s prior written consent.

In instances where family members make enquiries regarding a citizen’s whereabouts, the Embassy will forward such requests to the individual concerned, who may then decide whether or not to respond.

Once registration is completed, please send your details to the following email address:
