To get help from your Citizen Service Centre you must:

1. Bring valid documentation - see below (the documentation must be brought in physical form - only the driving license and the health insurance card can be supported via the danish driving licence app and the danish health insurance card app).
2. Answer a number of questions about yourself (based on data from the CPR Register) or bring a witnesser, who can confirm who you are. 

What is a witnesser?

A witnesser is a person, who will visit the citizen service centre with you and confirm who you are. To be a witnesser, the person must be 18 years or older and have had MitID for more than 30 days. The witnesser must bring valid documentation with picture (see below) and his or her MitID. The person is allowed to be a witnesser 3 times within a 120 day period.

Foreigner or living outside Denmark?

Are you a foreigner or living abroad, it is recommended that you bring a witnesser, as there might not be enough information about you in the CPR Register.
