This graph shows Denmark's total population from the year 1769 until 2020. Generally speaking, Denmark's population has been growing at a rather steady rate for the past 250 years. The numbers begin in 1769 where Denmark's population was approximately 798 thousand; it then grows at a consistent rate for the next 210 years, before the population decreases slightly in the 1980s. This dip in population is attributed to a decrease in the fertility rate across Europe during this time, resulting from improvements and increased access to contraception. The population then begins growing again in the late 1980s, due to a positive net migration rate and ageing population; today, the population is just under 5.8 million people.

Denmark DK: Population: Growth data was reported at 0.724 % in 2017. This records a decrease from the previous number of 0.780 % for 2016.

With nearly 49,000 living in Denmark as of January 1, 2024, most immigrants were from Poland. The second and third largest groups of immigrants were from Ukraine and Romania, amounting to roughly 41,000 and 40,000 people, respectively. Tightening immigration policies Like many European countries, Denmark experienced a heightened influx of immigrants in 2015. In the wake of the refugee situation, however, the number of immigrants, notably asylum seekers, declined in part due to sharpened immigration policies. In 2015, over 21,000 refugees applied for asylum in Denmark, whereas applications fell below 5,000 in 2022. Residence permits Among the different types of residence permits, permits granted based on asylum were the least delivered type of permit. Only 1,400 people were granted asylum in Denmark in 2022. The highest number of asylum seekers came from Ukraine, even when excluding Ukrainians arriving via the temporary protection act. In 2022, Denmark registered around 2,000 applications from Ukrainians.
