Identification<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Danish National Action Plan to Combat Trafficking in Human Beings sets the overall frame for identifying and assessing trafficking in human beings.\u00a0The victim identification process distinguishes between initial identification and final assessment. The Danish Center against Human Trafficking (CMM) performs the initial identification, also known as the trafficking interview, and\u00a0operates a national hotline for reporting possible cases of human trafficking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Early and immediate assistance<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In Denmark, all formally identified victims of human trafficking are offered a period of reflection and restitution. The reflection and restitution period lasts up to 120 days. During this period, victims have access to support under the Danish National Action Plan to Combat Trafficking in Human Beings. Child victims of human trafficking receive similar assistance measures as adult victims in Denmark. The support is not dependent on whether the victim collaborates with the police or the Prosecution Service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pre-trial investigation and criminal proceedi<\/strong>ngs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In accordance with the Danish Administration of Justice Act (section 741 c), presumed victims of human trafficking are entitled to receive legal aid during the criminal proceedings. The Danish Administration of Justice Act provides several possible measures to protect victims during the criminal procedure. Victims can receive compensation for instance by fling a compensation suit against their perpetrator during the criminal case or seeking compensation from the Danish state, if the conditions are fulfilled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Long-term assistance and residence permits <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In Denmark, the Aliens Act does not include provisions to grant a residence permit on the basis that the person has been identified as a victim of human trafficking. If an asylum seeker has been a victim of human trafficking in their country of origin, the applicant can be granted a residence permit based on the asylum claim if conditions are fulfilled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
