This is not an official licence

The Copenhagen Tourist Cycling Licence is not an official or government document. No licence is required to cycle in Denmark. This certificate confirms only that the holder completed the Bike Safe CPH course and test on the date shown. It grants no rights and carries no legal status.

Do not present it as identification, as a permit, or as any kind of official document. It is a certificate saying you took a course.

The information here is guidance, not legal advice

This course explains Danish traffic rules in plain language for visitors. It is informational guidance, not legal advice. Rules and fines change, and you are responsible for following current Danish law.

We work hard to keep the course accurate, and we review it against the Danish Road Traffic Act. We cannot guarantee it is complete or current at the moment you read it, and passing the test does not make you a safe cyclist - only riding carefully does that.

The name on your certificate

The name on this certificate was entered by the holder and has not been verified. This is not identity documentation.

Use your real name if you intend to show the certificate to anyone. We may withdraw a certificate carrying an offensive or impersonating name.

Your account

  • You need to be old enough to consent to us storing your name and email. If you are under 16, ask a parent first.
  • One licence per person. Retaking the test updates your existing certificate rather than issuing a second one.
  • Do not attempt to obtain a certificate for someone who did not sit the test.
  • You can delete your account, and everything attached to it, at any time from your account page.

We can withdraw a licence

If a certificate was obtained dishonestly, carries an abusive or impersonating name, or is being presented as an official document, we can revoke it. A revoked certificate page says so plainly rather than disappearing, so anyone checking gets an answer.

Cost

The course, the test and the certificate are free, and retaking the test is free. There is nothing to pay at any point and we will never ask for card details. If a site asks you to pay for a Copenhagen cycling licence, it is not us.

Changes

We update the course as the rules change. Your certificate records which version of the course you were tested on, and is valid for two years from the date it was issued.
