Effective from 1 October 2026 · regional change
SIRI has updated the Positive List for People with a Higher Education, effective from 1 October 2026. Midwife has been added following a submission from the regional employment councils. The addition applies only within the area covered by the Regional Employment Council for East Denmark. This update therefore does not add the occupation nationwide.
What this means for your case
The job’s location matters for the regional addition. The other permit requirements still need to be met.
