As an EU citizen, you can vote for the European Parliament if you are enrolled in the electoral register. The first time you want to vote in Denmark, you need to apply. You will then automatically stay in the register for as long as you have a permanent address in Denmark, and do not have to apply again.
Be aware that even though you have voted for local/regional elections, you are not automatically registered for EP elections.
To enroll for the EP elections in Denmark, you must fill out an application and send it to your residence municipality.

You will receive your poll card by post. You may vote in advance or on election day.
To vote in advance go to any Citizen Service Centre (Borgerservice) in Denmark from 6 weeks prior to the election and no later than the Friday before election day. You must remember to bring your ID. If you have voted in advance, you cannot vote on election day.
To vote on election day you must go to the voting station indicated on your poll card, and turn your poll card over at the table indicated on the card.
They will ask you your date of birth, and possibly your name and/or address. If you for some reason did not receive your poll card or forgot it, you can still vote, but you may need to provide proof of identity, e.g. photo ID.
You will be handed a ballot paper (one for regional and one for local election). You must go into the voting booth to cast your vote. On the ballot, you must put a cross on the list/political party or specifically on the name of one candidate to cast your vote. If you make an error, you can ask for a substitute ballot.
You then have to fold the ballot paper and put it in the designated ballot box outside the voting booth.
