The Citizenship exam lasts 45 minutes and consists of 45 questions. 35 of the questions are based on the study material – you can find the study material right here..

In addition, the exam consists of 10 unprepared questions. Comprising, 5 of the questions are current, which means that they are based on events that have taken place in the past 6 months (prior to the exam). The remaining 5 questions are revolved around Danish values.

The exam is a multiple-choice, which means there will be several different answer-options for each question. You must therefore cross off the answer you think is correct.
