How much does it cost to send a letter in Denmark in 2026?
Price depends on weight and speed.
Short answer
As of November 2026 a standard letter inside Denmark costs from 23 kr. with dao. A PLUS letter, which arrives faster, costs from 36 kr. Heavier letters of 101–250 g cost more; check the current weight-class price on dao.as before you buy. Letters may weigh up to 250 g and be at most 1 cm thick.
Why
- Two weight classes: 0–100 g and 101–250 g.
- The same price applies to every address in Denmark.
- PLUS costs more but arrives in 1–2 days.
Details
If you buy letter marks for more than 2,000 kr. on send.dao.as, you get 10 % off.
Tip
Weigh thick letters at home first: a letter just over 100 g moves into the dearer 101–250 g class.
What may differ
dao can change its prices, so check dao.as/brev before you buy a larger batch.
Common misconception
Sending a letter in Denmark costs the same as a few years ago with Post Danmark stamps.
What actually happens
Letters are now sent with dao letter codes or marks, and the 2026 price starts at 23 kr. for a standard letter.
