    Suggest you check the Danish tax laws and the need for a permit. I checked into all this last year for Nordea and its a total pain in the ass, you will likely need Danish umbrella....

    Glad you had a decent time.

    I've made four trips to Copenhagen and sadly each one was mainly of the airport-office-hotel-office-airport variety. My main memory is how damn expensive it could be be if you don't book things up even a few days in advance. Twice I went at short notice when there was a big conference in the city and all the hotels seemed full. Myself and two colleagues ended up staying about 20 miles from the office (which was not far from the airport). Taxi was over £100 each way! Would probably have been cheaper to have stayed in Sweden and crossed the bridge every day...

    Any currency broker (HIFX, Moneycorp, Caxton, etc) can help you get your money into GBP in your business account.

    It's a great time to be doing foreign work as the exchange rate is in your favour right now. Probably only changes drastically if Le Pen wins, which doesn't look too likely, or the Russians invade Finland or something like that.

    For dining after a hard day at the office try Kokkeriet

    You'll get an excellent experience for a mere £250 all in.
