Denmark's Bold Tax Shift | Copenhagen News

Denmark’s rolling out bold new taxes to fund sweeping cuts — a nightly tourist fee in Copenhagen and Aarhus, plus a cruise ship charge — all aimed at slashing income taxes for the wealthy and dropping corporate rates from 22% to 19%. To balance the books, they’re keeping sweet taxes, tweaking R&D deductions, hiking dividend taxes, capping personal interest deductions at 150K DKK (or 300K for couples), and slapping a 15% surcharge on estates over 10 million DKK. With no clear majority in government, this ambitious overhaul hinges on winning over other parties — and it’s shaping up to be one of the most consequential tax debates in Danish history.
