Licensed recruitment of skilled Filipino professionals for Danish employers. Your company is the direct employer — we run selection in Manila, the Danish permit process and the Philippine exit formalities end to end. From 1 worker.
Every Danish project runs on the same backbone: you define the roles, headcount and start date; our own DMW-licensed agency in Manila, Prime Search, sources and trade-tests candidates; you approve the shortlist (on-site or online); and we manage the Danish permit process under your power of attorney while the Philippine side — contract verification, medical, pre-departure orientation and the Overseas Employment Certificate — runs in parallel. The employment contract is signed and verified before departure; your new employee lands, completes local onboarding and clocks in.
The Danish specifics below are the part that makes Denmark different from every other market we serve.
Positive List / Pay Limit Scheme residence permit. Denmark admits non-EU workers mainly through the Positive List for skilled work (occupations in shortage, including vocational profiles) and the Pay Limit Scheme for higher-paid roles. General labour immigration is restricted, so we qualify each role against the lists before sourcing.
Labour-market test: Not applied for listed occupations; the scheme itself is the filter.
Shortage occupations: The Positive List for Skilled Work is updated twice a year and includes selected vocational roles.
Deploying a Filipino worker abroad is regulated by the Department of Migrant Workers (DMW). The MWO with jurisdiction for the Nordics verifies employers and contracts; we confirm the current assignment before deployment. The verified contract, together with the job order approved by the DMW, allows the worker to obtain the Overseas Employment Certificate (OEC) — the exit clearance without which no Filipino worker can legally leave for a job abroad. Pre-employment orientation, medical examination at a DOH-accredited medical clinic authorised to examine overseas Filipino workers and pre-departure orientation complete the sequence. Because we operate the licensed agency ourselves, this runs in parallel with the Danish permit rather than after it.
Typical gate-to-gate time for Denmark is 1–3 months after the job offer from signed engagement to the first arrival, driven mainly by the Danish permit and the embassy appointment in Manila. Sourcing and trade testing usually take two to four weeks and are not on the critical path. We give you a written timeline for your specific role before you commit.
Sectors where Danish employers most often hire Filipino workers through us:
Our contractual partner is the employer, and it is the employer we invoice for the service. You receive an individual offer for Denmark covering sourcing, trade testing, documentation, the permit process and arrival support — there is no price list, because volumes, roles and the Danish route differ from project to project. Direct employment means the worker's wage is paid by you under your Danish contract; there is no intermediary employer.
A Danish employer briefs us on roles and headcount. Within two to four weeks we present trade-tested candidates from Manila with video assessments; the employer interviews online and approves. We file the positive list / pay limit scheme residence permit under power of attorney while Prime Search completes the DMW documentation. The employment contracts are signed and MWO-verified before departure; on arrival the workers complete registration and local onboarding and start on the floor — with our team reachable for the first months of integration. Whether the project is one specialist or a full shift, the mechanics are identical.
Not through the standard schemes; Denmark is selective. We tell you immediately if a role does not fit.
Not for the permit; workplace English is common.
Fast once the role qualifies — usually weeks rather than months.
