This day, formerly called "session", is the entry point to conscription in Denmark. On the day, participants receive information about conscription training and about the Army, Navy, Air Force and the Danish Emergency Management Agency, and are assessed through a written test and a health check. The day lasts up to about six hours.
Everyone in Denmark who turns 18 is called up, men and women alike, and attendance is compulsory. You can apply to attend earlier or to have the day postponed if you are in education. A digital health questionnaire is sent 6 to 9 months before the day and is completed with MitID on borger.dk. Applications are made via borger.dk or Digital Post.
