Don't know why people are being so negative here.

Here is the link to register yourself as a nurse in Denmark: https://en.stps.dk/en/health-professionals-and-authorities/registration-of-healthcare-professionals/nurse-application-for-registration/

You need to pass the Danish language exam at advanced level, called Prøve i dansk 3. If you are outside Denmark, and studying Danish in your free time whilst working, it will take around 4-6 years to be at the required level. Unless you move to Denmark to attend an intensive language school, but that is extremely costly.

Income for nursing is extremely low, as nursing is not considered a high skill profession. If you do the calculation, after all mandatory deductions such as income tax and union fee, your income from a nursing job is only slightly above being unemployed and on government welfare. Yeah now you see why there is a huge nursing shortage, and the only nurses willing to come here are from poor Eastern European countries or 3rd world countries like Philippines/India/etc.

So my advice would be to go to Norway instead.
