Yes, all independent practitioners must have a CVR number to invoice patients and report to SKAT.

Yes, you need a CVR number if you run an independent healthcare practice in Denmark, regardless of whether you work from home or have a clinic.

The CVR number is required when you:

  • Invoice patients directly
  • Work as an independent healthcare provider
  • Have income from treatments
  • Need to report to SKAT (Danish Tax Agency)

You can apply for a CVR number for free on the Danish Business Authority's website. The process typically takes 1-2 business days. Also remember to check if your type of treatment requires special authorization or certification in addition to the CVR number.
