The tests were devised by successive Danish governments that moved towards tightening residency and asylum laws. The citizenship test consists of a total of 45 questions, 40 of which are about Danish social conditions, and five questions about Danish values, all in the form of choosing the correct answer from among several options.
To pass the test successfully, the applicant must answer at least 36 out of 45 questions correctly, including four out of the five questions about Danish values.
