Are Denmark's family reunification rules the same as the EU rules?

Family reunification in Denmark is governed by national law, not the EU directive. For a spouse or partner, both people normally must be at least 24 years old, the couple must meet Denmark's integration requirement (4 of 6 conditions), the sponsor usually must post a financial guarantee and show independent and adequately sized housing, and the sponsor must not have received certain social benefits. After approval, the applicant must pass Danish language tests within set deadlines. Conditions and the financial-guarantee amount are updated regularly, so confirm the current rules on nyidanmark.dk.
