Appeal Against a Refusal
Receiving a refusal from the Danish immigration authorities can be disappointing and overwhelming. However, a refusal does not always mean that your case has reached its end.
Depending on the circumstances, you may have the right to appeal the decision or submit a new application.
At Family Reunification in Denmark, we carefully review your case, explain your legal options, and help you determine the most appropriate next step.
When Can You Appeal?
You may be able to appeal if your application for one of the following has been refused:
- Family Reunification
- Visitor Visa (Schengen Visa)
- Residence Permit
- Extension of Residence Permit
- Permanent Residence Permit
- Residence under EU Rules
- Other immigration-related decisions
Every refusal is different, and the available options depend on the reasons for the decision.
Should You Appeal or Submit a New Application?
Not every refusal should automatically be appealed.
In some situations, submitting a new application with stronger supporting documentation may be the better solution.
During our assessment, we review:
- The refusal decision.
- The reasons for the refusal.
- The supporting documentation.
- Your current circumstances.
- Whether an appeal or a new application offers the strongest chance of success.
Our goal is to recommend the approach that best fits your individual situation.

Our professional services include:
- Detailed review of the refusal decision.

- Professional immigration advice.

Not always. Whether you have a right of appeal depends on the type of decision and the applicable immigration legislation.
We review your refusal decision and advise whether an appeal or a new application is likely to be the better option.
As soon as possible. Many immigration decisions are subject to strict appeal deadlines.
We usually ask for the refusal decision, your original application, supporting documentation, and any correspondence with the Danish authorities. Additional documents may be required depending on your case.
Possibly. We will assess your circumstances and explain what options, if any, are still available.

We begin by carefully reviewing your refusal decision and explaining your legal options in clear, practical language.
If an appeal is appropriate, we help prepare a well-structured submission supported by relevant documentation. If a new application offers a stronger chance of success, we guide you through that process instead.
