## Before you go to Denmark

To enter Denmark there are 6 things to sort out before you leave, starting with “Valid Spanish ID card (DNI) or passport”: they are all, with their deadlines, in [the Denmark checklist](https://kokai.app/en/paises/europa/dinamarca/#antes-de-salir). Currency: Danish krone (DKK); plugs: Type K · 230 V · 50 Hz (takes type C, but a grounded Schuko plug doesn't fit well); emergencies: 112 · 114 police (non-emergency).

In [Kokai](https://kokai.app/en/) you tick off the checklist inside your trip, and each item reminds you when it is time to do it.
