Visa to the Nordic Countries

The Nordic countries are part of the Schengen agreement, which eliminate border passport control between Schengen countries in Europe.

This means, you no longer need to stop or show your passport when travelling between Denmark and Germany or Denmark and Sweden. You must still have your passport with you, however, when travelling in Schengen countries as a form of identification.
