How business banking fees work in Denmark
A Danish business account usually carries several fee types. Traditional banks charge a one time setup or opening fee when the account is created, then a recurring monthly or annual account fee. On top of that sit per transaction charges for transfers, telegraphic transfers, and cards, plus a foreign exchange spread on currency conversion. Electronic money providers price differently, often with no fixed monthly fee but usage based charges for conversions and transfers. As of 19 May 2026.
Setup and account fees at traditional banks
Third party guides report setup fees of roughly 1,500 to 3,000 Danish kroner and monthly fees of roughly 139 to 299 Danish kroner at Danske Bank, and an opening fee of roughly 4,800 Danish kroner with annual maintenance of roughly 1,980 Danish kroner at Nordea, as of 19 May 2026. These are reported estimates rather than figures confirmed on the bank pricing pages, so verify current pricing directly with each bank before you apply.
Electronic money providers and usage based fees
Electronic money providers that serve the European Economic Area usually charge no fixed monthly bank fee. Wise Business lists a one time setup fee, for example 50 euros for European Economic Area businesses, and then usage based charges for conversions and transfers, with conversion at the mid market rate plus a published fee. Airwallex lists plan based pricing where a monthly fee can apply unless balance or deposit thresholds are met, plus a foreign exchange spread of 0.5 percent above the interbank rate for major currencies. As of 19 May 2026. Verify current pricing with each provider.
