What is the route from the Czech Republic to Denmark?

There are three ways into Denmark. For Jutland (Aarhus, Billund, Vejle) we drive overland via Dresden, Berlin and Hamburg on the A7 to the Padborg crossing – Prague to Aarhus is about 1,000 km. For Copenhagen and the islands we go via Rostock on the ferry to Gedser (about 2 hours) or via Puttgarden on the ferry to Rødby (about 45 minutes); by road it is around 720 km from Prague.

Jutland and Zealand are linked by the Great Belt bridge. The shipment usually reaches the consignee within 2 days of loading.

Where we go in Denmark – industrial centres

We most often head to these cities and industrial areas with manufacturing and automotive companies:

  • Copenhagen – Novo Nordisk – pharma
  • Aarhus – port
  • Odense – robotics
  • Aalborg – production, cement
  • Esbjerg – energy, port
  • Kolding – logistics

What do we transport to Denmark?

To Denmark we carry engineering components, parts for pump and drive manufacturing, packaging and building materials, and palletised goods for distribution centres around Copenhagen and in the Vejle–Kolding–Fredericia triangle.

Danish warehouses and plants have strict safety rules – drivers often have to register at the gate and wear a hi-vis vest and safety shoes.

Which tolls and rules apply in Denmark?

  • Tolls: since 1 January 2025 Denmark has charged a distance-based toll for trucks over 12 t, replacing the Eurovignette. The Great Belt bridge and the Øresund Bridge are charged separately.
  • Driving ban: Denmark has no weekend truck ban. On the route through Germany, however, the Sunday and holiday ban applies.
  • Border: Denmark is in Schengen but has carried out spot checks at the German border near Padborg in recent years – we allow for possible delays.
  • Currency: Denmark does not use the euro; the currency is the Danish krone. Goods within the EU travel without customs duty.

What do we transport from Denmark to the Czech Republic?

From Denmark to the Czech Republic we carry pumps and drives, food and meat products (temperature-controlled), plastic products and toys, furniture and palletised wind turbine parts. We load throughout Jutland, on Funen and around Copenhagen.

Is there a weekend truck ban in Denmark?
No, Denmark has no weekend truck ban. On the route through Germany, however, the Sunday and holiday ban applies, so we plan end-of-week loadings ahead.
How long is the ferry to Denmark?
The Puttgarden–Rødby ferry takes about 45 minutes and the Rostock–Gedser ferry around 2 hours. Both sail frequently during the day, so the truck rarely waits long for a crossing.
Does Denmark check the border with Germany?
Denmark is in Schengen but has carried out spot checks at the German border near Padborg in recent years. We allow for possible delays and the driver carries all documents.
Do you deliver to Billund, Vejle and Kolding?

What safety rules apply in Danish warehouses?
At Danish warehouses and plants the driver usually registers at the gate and must wear a hi-vis vest and safety shoes. We brief the driver on these rules in advance.
Do you carry single pallets to Denmark?
Yes, single pallets for Denmark travel as part loads, often together with goods for northern Germany or Sweden. We recommend a full truck for a fixed unloading time.
How fast does a shipment reach Denmark?
A shipment to Denmark usually reaches the consignee within 2 days of loading. For Jutland and Copenhagen the truck often arrives the next day after a morning loading in North Bohemia.
Is transport to Denmark free of customs duty?
Yes, Denmark is in the EU, so goods travel without customs duty. It does not use the euro – the currency is the Danish krone – but that does not change invoicing between companies.
Can you route goods through Denmark to Sweden?
Yes, the Øresund Bridge links Copenhagen with Malmö. This route suits shipments to southern Sweden, which we also reach by ferry from Rostock.
