Getting a Medical Certificate in Horsens
Horsens has grown quickly in recent years, with a manufacturing base built around companies like AP Møller-based logistics and food production, alongside an expanding services and events sector — the city has become a notable venue centre for concerts and sport in central Jutland. Larger manufacturing employers typically run a formal, written sickness policy, while the growing services and events sector varies more.
VIA University College has a campus in Horsens, adding a student population to the city's manufacturing and events-driven economy. Illness affecting exams or coursework is generally handled through the institution's own process, with its own evidence requirements.
There's no premises attached to this service in Aalborg: the assessment is completed entirely online by a doctor registered to assess cases in Denmark, so being too unwell to travel across the city plays no part in the process.

Denmark Legal Snapshot: What Applies in Horsens
Sick-leave and certificate rules are set nationally, so what follows applies in Horsens exactly as it does anywhere else in Denmark.
In Denmark, employees generally self-report sickness (sygemelding) directly to their employer. Under the sygedagpengeloven (the Danish Sickness Benefits Act), an employer legally has the right to request a "friattest" (a doctor's certificate confirming inability to work) from the very first day of an absence, at the employer's expense, though in practice many only ask for one after an initial self-notification period of around 1-3 days. For longer or recurring absences, an employer may also request a "mulighedserklæring" (a capability statement used to plan a return to work). Practice varies considerably by employer and by collective agreement (overenskomst), so it is always worth checking with your employer or union about the specific documentation timing that applies to you. For sport, gym, travel, or general purposes, a separate certificate type applies: see the full list below. In everyday English this is often just called a doctor's note for Denmark, even where the official local term differs.
| Local document name | Sygemelding is the self-report you generally make directly to your employer. Beyond an initial period, an employer may generally request a "friattest" (doctor's certificate confirming inability to work) or a "mulighedserklæring" (capability statement for planning a return to work). |
|---|---|
| Typical self-report period | Commonly the first 1-3 days of sickness absence, when many employers accept self-notification alone as a matter of practice, though this varies by employer and by collective agreement |
| When a certificate may generally be requested | Legally, an employer may request a friattest from day 1 of an absence under the sygedagpengeloven; in practice, most wait until beyond an initial self-notification period, particularly for longer or recurring absences, with exact timing set by employer policy or collective agreement |
| Who can generally issue it | A doctor (læge) |
| Submission process | Generally as directed by your employer's own sickness policy or an applicable collective agreement (overenskomst) |
| Governing framework | The sygedagpengeloven (Danish Sickness Benefits Act) gives employers the legal right to request documentation, together with any applicable collective agreement; there is no single statutory day-count that applies uniformly to every employee, since the law allows a request from day 1 but many employers wait longer in practice |
| Data protection law | GDPR as implemented in Denmark |
Note on documentation timing: Denmark has no statutory self-certification window that shields an employee from a certificate request for a fixed number of days. Under the sygedagpengeloven, an employer may legally request a friattest from day 1 of an absence, at the employer's cost, though many wait longer in practice. Some collective agreements set specific day thresholds; others leave the timing to employer discretion entirely. Always confirm your own obligations and entitlements directly with your employer, HR department, or trade union before relying on any general description, including this one.
