Denmark does not use the euro, so every DKK transfer includes a currency conversion. The rate matters even when the payment starts from a Danish IBAN.

Best DKK/TRY transfer options

Family gifts have an annual allowance

Denmark does not tax the act of sending money abroad, but a gift can create Danish gift tax.

In 2026, most close relatives can receive up to DKK 80,600 from one donor without gift tax.

The general tax above the allowance is 15%.

Spouses are normally exempt, while different rules apply to other relationships.

The allowance also applies when the recipient lives outside Denmark.
