Will you have an income in DK? That's the determining fact to get any CC in DK. When you apply online they will ask you for permission to fetch information from Skat and if they can't see anything you won't get an approval. SEB (the card issuer) is a lot more foreigner friendly than other companies, so if you have income abroad you might need to get a hold of them to get an exception.

Sweden is CC heaven compared to DK.

I had every single bank and card issuer deny my application in the first year when I moved over. They didn’t even offered the option to talk to someone… actually SEB didn’t even allow me to open a bank account.
