Do you tip in DENMARK?

Are you travelling to Denmark? Then you may be wondering about tipping in Denmark and whether tipping is a requirement. 

The quick answer to this is no, tipping is not a part of Danish culture and therefore is not a requirement for tourists travelling to Denmark. 

The reason for this is that Danish locals employed in tourism and hospitality roles are paid a higher wage compared to their counterparts in the USA (where tipping is a requirement). They do not need to rely on tips to supplement their income.

So, do you need to tip in Denmark? No, tipping in Denmark is not a requirement.
