Denmark’s New Working Holiday Quota for Chileans & Argentinians to Begin on September 1

Denmark’s authorities have announced that a new Working Holiday quota period will begin for nationals of Chile and Argentina from September 1, 2024.

Through a statement, The Danish Agency for International Recruitment and Integration (SIRI)
has announced that appointments will be opened on VFS Buenos Aires, Argentina and VFS Santiago and Chile, from September 2, 9 am local time, Schengen.News reports.

The same emphasises that the Working Holiday programme for nationals of Chile and Argentina has an annual quota of 150 Working Holiday residence permits.

A quota year runs from March of a respective year up to and including February of the following year.

Once the quota of up to 150 residence permits under the Working Holiday programme for nationals of Chile and Argentina has been used, no more residence permits will be issued until March 1, 2025, when the next quota year begins.

In February this year, authorities in Denmark announced that the country would issue up to 75 residence permits for nationals of Chile and Argentina from March 1 until August 31, 2024.

The decision came as part of Denmark’s decision to open its Working Holiday quota period for nationals of both countries from March 1, 2024, as confirmed through a statement by the SIRI.

Back then, SIRI announced that once the quota of 75 residence permits under the Working Holiday scheme for nationals of both countries was fully used, no more residence permits would be issued until September 1, 2024, when the next quota is set to start.

Through the Working Holiday scheme, internationals are eligible to travel and work in Denmark for up to one year. The main reason for an international stay should be a holiday, and the second reason could be working to supplement travel funds.
