Denmark visa for Lebanese citizens

Denmark’s tourist visa costs €90 at the standard rate published by its authorities; the official site for it is applyvisa.um.dk. Processing time, as Denmark states it: Up to 15 days once the mission has registered the case, or up to 45 days if it is referred to the Danish Immigration Service; waiting times at individual missions can be much longer. Longest stay on the tourist visa: Up to 90 days in any 180-day period in the Schengen Area.

Denmark has 1 mission in Lebanon, with its embassy in Beirut.

In 2025, Denmark’s embassy and consulates in Lebanon (Beirut) received 910 applications for short-stay Schengen visas and issued 554. The refusal rate was 34.8%. The refusal rate fell by 7.2 points from 42.0% in 2024, a clear improvement for applicants. Applications rose by 16% compared with 2024 (787).

For comparison, all Schengen states together refused 17.3% of the applications lodged in Lebanon that year, from 4.6% at the consulates of Bulgaria to 38.6% at those of Germany. Denmark’s consulates worldwide refused 21.9%. Denmark was the 11th most applied-for Schengen state in Lebanon.

You apply to the Schengen state that is your main destination (the longest stay or the main purpose; the state of first entry only when there is none), so a lower rate elsewhere is no reason to apply there. The figures cover applications lodged in Lebanon, by any nationality: mostly citizens, but also residents from other countries.

For a trip from Lebanon to Denmark, the published travel advice reads as follows: the US State Department rates Denmark at Level 2, exercise increased caution (updated 16 September 2024), the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office does not advise against travel to Denmark (updated 11 August 2026) and the German Foreign Office has no travel warning for Denmark (updated 13 October 2026).
