Hi Danes!
I  was researching on what's required for the medical (we're not that far yet at all but I like to be prepared), and noticed my husband will need to bring his military record. He is exempt from conscription, and has gotten sent 2 letters (in email) about his exemption that are from 2016; a short one, and a lengthier one explaining further reasoning. When we get to that stage, should he bring the short one, long one, or both? Will print outs of the emails be fine? Also, will they have to be accompanied with English translation? I wouldn't think so since I'm sure the doctors speak Danish, but you never know if they might want it in English as well or not for when they send the medical to the embassy?

Can't answer for the medical part as military papers aren't required for medicals here at least not when I did it though we reinstated the draft after that so maybe... Anyway you'll need the English papers at the embassy.

When I read about the medical in Denmark, it's required to bring in military records (or proof of exemption from military service) to the Danish medical, since conscription in Denmark is mandatory for all men over 18 unless deemed unfit; he was deemed unfit but I'm unsure if printing out the emails he received is sufficient for his medical and whether he'd only need one or both, since they both say he is exempt but one is longer and explains why and the other is shorter and does not

If they want it for the medical, they must want to know WHY he was deemed unfit.

But would they want both (since they are both official government statements about it), and would prints of the emails even be sufficient? The list states, "for all male applicants: Military service record or Certificate of Unfitness for Military Service or Rejection stating grounds of disability". Would an email even be considered acceptable? They don't really look like "certificates", more like letters, and neither really goes into much detail, the overall vague reasoning is listed but not the specific problem that exempts him.

I'd contact the appropriate authorities and hear if they can give him a more official certificate (by snail mail). Perhaps they can even issue it in English.

Yeah, I get that, but I am saying they're going to want it for the interview as well. It goes in the sealed envelope.

Is it just in an email or as an attachment to an email and it's on a piece of paper with the Danish military crest or similar on it? If it's just an email I'd contact them for an official one. I was fine with an attached letter in an email but that one had the crest on it. Also, ask them to make one in English for you.

Hi Scandinavians!
We are now in the waiting process to NVC, and we are preparing for the interview, but I have what I think is a couple of year old P3 packet from Stockholm embassy I found here on the forum last year, and I´m wondering if there maybe was someone that have "newer" P3 packet from the Stockholm embassy listing, everything I need for the interview?

It's in a PDF attachment, but It's marked in the corner as from the Forsvarsministeriets Personalestyrelse (Danish Ministry of Defense Personnel Agency) with the agency logo on it (which is just the HR department for the Ministry of Defense basically), not the Danish or military Coat of Arms. So it does have an official "logo" on it but I'm not sure if it would work since it's not the Denmark or Military Coat of Arms?

Then it should be fine.

P3 has not changed, I suggest getting started on your medical as soon as you get the case number from NVC.  Interview appointment wait time for stockholm is very quick, literally within a week but appointment wait time for the medical exam with the doctor in stockholm is longer, 2 weeks and then 2-3 weeks for the results.  

 

Oh also, you might want to consider getting your fiance vaccinated somewhere else instead of the medical exam place if needed, the doctor there charges double the normal rate.

Ok, thanks! Do you think he should bring print outs of both of them to the medical (and translations of both to the interview)?

Thank you so much for your answer!
That sounds like a good idea to schedule the Medical when I get my case nr., even though it´s in Copenhagen the wait time sounds about the same. 

I´m happy to hear the wait time for the Stockholm embassy isn´t as long as I thought, I thought maybe a month.

Did you schedule your interview yet?

I think I should be good on all the vaccinations, but I´ll double check it, thank you again!
