The main rule for permanent residence requires 8 years of legal and uninterrupted residence in Denmark, combined with the other requirements (language, employment, no public debt, etc.). The period can be reduced to 4 years if four supplementary conditions are met (e.g. C1-level Danish, particularly long full-time employment).
