You will have to fill in an application for registration stating personal information, form of business enterprise, and within which trade you want to operate. Whether you want to set up e.g. a wholesale, retail, or production business and so forth.
This is also referred to as registration for VAT or to get a CVR (Central Business Register) number.
The legal side of starting business takes two weeks – moreover, it’s free of charge.
Registration
If your annual turnover exceeds Dkr. 50,000, if you pay wages or import goods for distribution you must register your business.
Being an employee or a student is no hindrance to starting business on your own. However, if you are unemployed you must contact your unemployment insurance fund to check whether or not you are allowed to start business. You must then figure out, along with your unemployment insurance fund, a way to run your business as sideline.
If you set up a limited company (private or public) you must also register with Erhvervs- og Selskabsstyrelsen (the Danish Commerce and Companies Agency)
