How many hours can I work on a Danish student residence permit for higher education?

Illustration for this immigration answer

Up to 90 hours per month from September to May, and full time during June, July and August.

While studying you may work alongside your programme, but with limits. From September to May you can work up to 90 hours per month. During the summer months of June, July and August you may work full time. Approved mandatory internships that are part of your programme can also be full time. Unpaid voluntary work is not counted against these limits. Exceeding the permitted hours can put your residence permit at risk.
