police, call for an ambulance or the fire-fighting service.
Speak slowly and distinctly. State your name, telephone
number and address. Emergency calls from public pay
phones are free.
Danish currency
The currency is Danish Kroner (DKK). One krone is divided
into 100 øre. Coins are circulated in the following denominations:
50 øre (copper), 1 krone, 2 kroner, 5 kroner
(silver, each with a hole in the centre), 10 and 20 kroner
(both brass).
ATMs/cash mashines and credit cards
The most common credit card in Copenhagen is Visa, but
you should have no problem finding ATMs/cash machines
that accept MasterCard or American Express as well. Most
banks have ATMs outside that are open 24 hours.
Electricity
Denmark, like most other European countries, has 220-
volt AC, 50Hz current and uses two-pin continental plugs.
Smoking
Smoking is forbidden in public buildings and private business
- including restaurants, pubs, shops, public transport,
entertainment venues and workplaces - throughout
the country. Some places have installed special smoking
rooms but most refer smokers to the streets.
Language
The Danish language is closely related to both Swedish
and Norwegian. However, most Danes speak English well.
German and French are also taught in school.
