Polish citizens do not need a visa or any travel authorisation to enter Denmark for tourism; you may board with an accepted travel document only. This permission allows a tourist stay of up to 90 days and does not permit paid work or study.
You may enter Denmark on a passport, a temporary passport or a Polish national identity card; these documents must be valid for the whole period of your stay. A driving licence is not accepted for border entry on this route.
No vaccinations are required for travel to Denmark on this route.
A single tourist entry permits a stay of up to 90 days. Extension routes and penalties for overstaying are not covered in the provided route facts.

Travel insurance is recommended but it is not a condition of entry. If you are covered by Poland’s NFZ, obtain a European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) before travel to access necessary public healthcare services in Denmark; EHIC does not cover all costs, so private insurance is advised for additional protection.
