Relating to Brexit: The transition period for the United Kingdom's withdrawal from the EU expired at the turn of the year 2021. British citizens who in the future seek residence, education and the like in Denmark is thus no longer covered by EU legislation. Britons residing in Denmark before the turn of the year 2021 will however be covered by the withdrawal agreement and therefore retain their rights including free education.
