Best time to go to Copenhagen
The weather in Copenhagen’s pretty mild – summer temperatures tend to bob around the early 20s and it’s almost always a little cloudy. Rain makes a regular appearance all year round, too, so don’t forget to pop an umbrella in your suitcase. In winter, it’s nippy, but flurries of snow make the city even easier on the eye. And spring and autumn can be summed up as cool and grey.Passports and Visas
British passport holders don’t need a visa to enter Denmark but must have a valid passport. You can check your passport’s valid for Denmark using our handy tool.

Health and safety
You should take out comprehensive travel and medical insurance to cover you while you’re away. It’s also a good idea to get a European Health Insurance Card – or EHIC – before leaving the UK. You'll get a new UK Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC) instead of an EHIC. You can apply at www.gov.uk/european-health-insurance-card. Visit www.nhs.uk/ehic for full details on what it covers. You do not need to apply for a GHIC if you already have an EHIC. Your EHIC remains valid in the EU until it expires. An EHIC or GHIC is free of charge. You’ll need to have both this card and adequate travel insurance. Though it’s not a substitute for travel insurance, it entitles you to emergency medical treatment on the same terms as Danish nationals. It won’t, however, cover you for medical repatriation, ongoing medical treatment or non-urgent treatment.
