Guideline to buy Greenlandic fishing licences from outside Greenland & Denmark
For each fishing licence an international bank transfer has to be made to the Department of Industry's bank account. For this reason this option includes a fee of DKR 50,- to cover expenses for receiving international money transfers (the fee has been added to prices below).
The official money-transfer receipt from your bank is your personal fishing licence, which needs to be carried on you while fishing (the receipt needs to contain the information described below).
One of the following amounts is to be transfered to the Department of Industry's bank account:
A: For a 24 hours licence: DKR 125,-
B: For a one week licence: DKR 250,-
C: For a one month licence: DKR 550,-
The money-trasnfer shall include the following reference text, which shall also be included on your receipt:
- The first nine characters of your last name - example "Kristians" for Kristiansen
- One space
- The first three characters in your name - example "Mic" for Michael
- One space
- The first three characters of the (starting) month you wish the licence to be valid in - example: "jun" for June
- One space
- The date for the first day you wish the license to be valid from - example "21"
- In this case, the text is "Kristians mic jun 21"

- The Danish name of the Department is "Direktoratet for Erhverv"
- Name of the Bank: Grønlandsbanken (Bank of Greenland)
