Denmark has been proclaimed as the happiest nation on Earth numerous times. That title is based on several factors, such as low crime rate, quality education, clean environment, great healthcare, security, and so on, which all contribute to placing Denmark on the top.
Expats fight for a spot in the Danish community as their professional and financial security is top-tier. Crime is extremely low, cleanliness is on a superb level, and the natural surroundings are diverse and breathtaking.
All of that makes Denmark a no-brainer when it comes to relocating, but before you pack your things and take off, you’d benefit from learning the costs of such a feat.
Transporting your household items to Denmark (or from the country if you’re already there and plan to move elsewhere) is neither cheap nor too expensive.
