That was ten. There are 1,400+ more.

491 of them are Danish, drilled chapter by chapter in the order the official material sets them, with a mistakes deck, spaced repetition and full mocks under the real clock.

Common questions

Passing Indfødsretsprøven

What score do you need to pass indfødsretsprøven?

You need 36 correct answers out of 45. There is a second threshold on top of that: 5 of the 45 questions are on Danish values, and at least 4 of those 5 must be right. Missing the values threshold fails the test even with 36 or more correct overall.

How often is indfødsretsprøven held, and what does it cost?

Twice a year, in summer and in winter. The next sitting is on 25 November 2026 and registration closes on 21 October 2026. The fee is 946 DKK. Dates for 2027 are published by SIRI in advance of each sitting.

Can you take indfødsretsprøven in English?

No. Indfødsretsprøven is set and sat in Danish only, and there is no English version. It is separate from the Danish language requirement, which is normally Prøve i Dansk 3 at B2 level.

The test is one requirement out of 7

Danish citizenship also asks for 9 years of residence on the standard route, a language qualification and a clean record — each with its own rules on absences and timing.
