6. Sworn declarations

A. Sworn declaration of correctness

I solemnly swear that the information I have given in this application is correct and complete. If the information is

found to be false or incomplete, I am subject to the following penalties:

 My residence permit can be revoked.

 Fine or imprisonment of up to two years.

 I can be required by law to repay the expenses incurred by the Danish state as a consequence of the false or

incomplete information.

B. Declaration of consent to allow authorities to gather necessary information

I consent to letting the Danish Agency for International Recruitment and Integration (SIRI) obtain and pass on

information about my private affairs for the purpose of enabling them to process my application. Information can be

obtained from or passed on to other Danish and foreign public authorities, including the police authorities.

Such information includes:

 Verification that the documents submitted with my application are genuine.

 My family relations.

 Any previous criminal proceedings against me.

I also consent to giving authorities contacted by SIRI while processing my application permission to gather

information about my private affairs for use in responding to the enquiry.

C. Notification that information can be passed on to Danish intelligence agencies and the Danish

prosecuting authority

The information and documents that you submit with your application can be passed on to Danish intelligence

agencies and the Danish public prosecuting authority. This process can be initiated by SIRI, Danish intelligence

agencies or the Danish public prosecutor.

The prosecuting authority will be able to use the information to evaluate whether there are grounds for prosecuting

you for crimes committed in or outside Denmark, to identify victims of or witnesses to a specific crime, or to aid

foreign law enforcement agencies.

D. Notification that some information will be passed on to local Danish authorities

SIRI is permitted to give certain information to the municipality (kommune) in which you settle if you receive a

residence permit.

Such information includes:

 The grounds for issuing you a residence permit.

The municipality will be informed if:

 Your residence permit is revoked or not extended.

 Your residence permit lapses at some point in the future.

 You are granted a permanent residence permit.

E. Notification that Danish authorities have registered information about you and your affairs

The information you supply or have supplied in connection with your application for a residence and work permit will

be registered in SIRI’s registers. The same holds true for any information you give in conjunction with an application

to extend your residence permit.

If you receive a residence permit and take up residence in Denmark, it will be registered in the Civil Registration

System (CPR). The CPR Register is a computerised register maintained by the Ministry of Economic Affairs and the

Interior.

The information in SIRI’s registers and the CPR register will be used to answer questions relating to your residence in

Denmark. Public administration authorities (record keeping), the police (record keeping and verification) and the

Immigration Appeals Board (reviewing complaints) will have access to the information about you contained in SIRI’s

WH1

Page 5 of 7

registers and the CPR register.

Other authorities or organisations will receive information about you from SIRI’s registers and the CPR register if they

require the information to address questions relating to your residence in Denmark.

You are obligated to provide the information necessary for deciding whether you are eligible for a Danish residence

permit. You are entitled to access information about yourself in SIRI’s registers, and you are entitled to object to any

information which you believe to be incorrect. Contact the Danish Agency for International Recruitment and

Integration, Njalsgade 72A, PO box 2000, DK-2300 Copenhagen S, if we are to correct, delete or block information,

which proves to be incorrect.

The fingerprints and the facial image recorded for use on your residence card and for identification and identity

verification will be registered in the Danish immigration authorities' registers. If you are granted a residence permit

the fingerprints and the facial image will be stored for 10 years. If you are not granted a residence permit the

fingerprints and the facial image will be stored for 20 years. If you become a Danish citizen the fingerprints and the

facial image will be deleted.

F. Verification and spot-checks

Your case can be selected for a spot-check. The spot-check aims to verify the following:

 The accuracy of the information you have given.

 Whether you meet the conditions for a residence and work permit, if such is granted to you.

 Whether you are staying and/or working in Denmark without the necessary permit.

Verification may involve the following:

 Checking public registers, such as the CPR register

 Comparing information contained in SIRI registries with records held by the Central Office of Civil

Registration (CPR Office), the Buildings and Housing Registry (BBR) or the income registry

 Contacting other authorities, such as municipalities

 Contacting third parties, such as employers or places of study

 Turning up in person at your residence, place of study or workplace

 Using information registered by your employer about your employment

You may be asked to supply additional information as part of the verification process.

and accepted the terms laid out in section A-B.

I also understand that the information I have given or will be giving will be registered in the Danish

Agency for International Recruitment and Integration's registers and that the information contained in

the registers of the Danish Agency for International Recruitment and Integration and the Danish

Immigration Service can be compared with records held by the Central Office of Civil Registration (CPR),
