Common questions from Danish companies

Can a Danish ApS or A/S open a UK business account?
Yes. Danish ApS (Anpartsselskab) and A/S (Aktieselskab) companies can apply. You do not need a UK-registered entity — your Danish company applies directly using your CVR number. No UK address is required from directors or shareholders.
Do I need to translate my Danish company documents?
Danish company documents — including your CVR extract from virk.dk and articles of association — are accepted as-is for most standard documents. If a specific document requires translation, the compliance team will contact you during the review process.
Can I hold DKK and send EUR from my UK account?
Yes. The account supports multi-currency wallets including DKK (Danish Krone) and EUR. Denmark is a full EU and SEPA member, so you can send and receive EUR payments across 36 European countries using SEPA Credit Transfer or SEPA Instant — all from the same UK account.
Is the account FCA regulated?
Payment services are provided by Gemba Finance Limited, authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority under the Payment Services Regulations 2017 (FRN: 804853). ARIDANG acts as an introducer to Gemba Finance Limited.
How long does it take to open the account?
With a complete application, approval is typically same day to 24 hours. The process is entirely online — no appointments, no branch visits, and no notarisation or apostille required. Danish companies with high-tech, design, or trading activities are well-suited for approval.
