tl;dr I need to get a CPR and I want to know if my friends' apartment is big enough for all 3 of us. Where can I find the regulations/rules about that?

I just got a job offer and I am preparing my documents to get my CPR (woohoo!!). Along some other things, I saw that I need a residency in order to get my CPR. I called SIRI for some clarifications and they told me I can add the address of my friends who already live in Denmark, with the only condition that the apartment complies with the regulations, and 3 people (my friends and I) can live there.

I thought it is something trivial and I can search for a couple of minutes and figure that out, but I cannot find any resource on that matter. My friends think it's fine and their apartment is big enough, but I don't have a concrete answer so far.

Could anybody help me with that and tell me which are the regulations/rules about the size of the apartment?

Does it have to do with the square meter, the amount of extra rooms, or something else? I am in the dark here.

As far as I’m aware it’s two persons per room without a specified purpose (so bathrooms, kitchens, storage rooms etc. don’t count).

There may be different rules for families consisting of adults and their children.

I'm not quite sure but I believe it's a maximum of one resident per room in the apartment..

I think that's only if you're renting the apartment out. (Fremleje)

Depends on their contract if they're renting, but generally it's 2 people per possible bedroom (a.k.a not bathroom/kitchen). Some places limit it to just 1 person per possible bedroom of they're renting and then subletting to you.

Hard to say for sure here without knowing their specific contract or number or rooms in the apartment.

If they're renting, they could ask their landlord how many can live there if they don't think it'll cause problems?

One person per room, except two persons are allowed in a 1-room-apartment.

How big is your friend's apartment? (Number of rooms) You properly need to be added as a rentée, or rent a room from your friend.

I used to work for copenhagen commune, registering foreigners moving into apartments etc, and here is the rule: 2 people pr room, but if it doesnt seem suspicious, you can get away with more. When working with this, we had online access to how many people living in each place blabla. So if it’s 5 people in a 2 room apartment, that’s like fine. If it’s 10 people in 2 rooms, they will ask for more information, and for you to clarify who actually lives there, with proof from the landlort

Your friend should check their lease agreement as a lot of landlords don’t allow collectives/house shares and their lease agreement could be terminated.

As many have said, it really depends on their lease. My old landlord told me not to put anyone else as a resident, since a former tenant had 10 of his friends as residents, so they all could get the maximum amount of student funds. This is also fraud.

It can be stated on the lejekontrakt (Rent agreement? Im not sure how it is translated). For my dorm room there is a section that describes that only one person is allowed to have residence in the room.

The law says whatever the amount of rooms is listed as. So if it's a 1-room apartment it's 1 person, 2-room = 2 people, etc. The physical size doesn't matter. If it was the size of a football field but listed as a 1-room apartment, only one person can live there legally.

Does living room count as a room? Or just the bedrooms? Technically it’s an empty room, isn’t it?
