The Embassy’s processing time in visa cases is currently up to 40 days.
We are aware of the inconvenience the extended case processing time may cause, but assure that we are working hard to bring down processing time for all applications. Business applications and applicants eligible to apply under the EU-rules are prioritised.
In cases where processing requires further enquiries or submission to the Danish Immigration Service, the maximum processing time is up to 45 calendar days.
The case processing is calculated from the day the Embassy registers the application in the visa system, not from the time you apply online.
Please make sure you book an appointment to submit your application as soon as possible. Appointment at the Danish Embassy in Athens can be booked on this number: +30 2107256440.
Please be aware that you must complete the online application process including payment of the visa at: ApplyVisa before you can book an appointment with the Embassy.
