- Denmark has made a commitment to beneficial ownership transparency through some other means [06 November 2014] link to commitment
- As a European Union member, Denmark was obliged to create a central, public register of beneficial ownership as part of the EU’s fifth Anti-Money Laundering Directive. Following the judgement of the Court of Justice of the European Union on 22 November 2022, member states are no longer required to provide public access, and are instead required to, at a minimum, provide access to those that can demonstrate a legitimate interest.
