You have arrived in Denmark. What can you do now to make your life here easier and integrate into the municipality? Whether you are from a Nordic country, an EU country, or a non-EU country, there are a couple of things you must consider.
Temporary or permanent import of a motor vehicle:
Registration tax must be paid on all cars and other motor vehicles in Denmark
How to obtain a driving licence in Denmark (link)
You can apply for a driving licence if you have normal residence in Denmark.
In Denmark, there is a partial charge for dental care. You have to pay for check-ups and treatment, but part of the bill is government funded. This amount is automatically deducted from your bill. You are free to choose any dentist. Children and young people under 18 years of age are entitled to free dental treatment.

Once you are registered in the Civil Registration System, you are entitled to choose a general practitioner (GP) whom you can contact if you fall ill. Your GP will also handle prescriptions, vaccinations, and certain types of contraception, and will also assist you with regard to disease prevention. You will need to make an appointment before going to see your GP. Contacting and seeing your GP is free of charge. Please note that seeing a physiotherapist or a chiropractor is not entirely free of charge even if your GP has made a referral. The same goes for prescribed medicine.
