To emigrate after 60 years to Denmark, it is necessary to meet certain requirements established by the Danish government. According to Professor Søren Harnow Klausen of the University of Southern Denmark, living in a welfare state increases the likelihood of being happy. Denmark offers free healthcare, tuition-free higher education, nursing homes, and a government pension that covers basic needs, relieving the economic burden on retirees. Additionally, the country has a high life expectancy, a strong economy, low levels of corruption, and an environment of social trust. According to Professor Lars Larsen, "equality in happiness is fundamental in Denmark."
Denmark has been ranked as the happiest country in the world, thanks to its social welfare system and an environment that favors a balance between obligations and personal life. The fundamental requirements for residing in Denmark include demonstrating economic solvency with at least 10,000 euros in a personal bank account and holding a European Union passport.
The process to emigrate involves requesting an appointment at the International Recruitment and Integration Agency, submitting various documents such as proof of residence and confirmation of CPR registration. Denmark stands out for its social welfare, which directly influences the quality of life for those who decide to start a new chapter in this country.
