Payments for private and public companies
What kind of employees do I need to pay for?
As a rule, you need to pay ATP contributions for your employees if they
- are wage earners
- are 16
- work in Denmark or are posted by a Danish employer to work abroad short-term
- work at least nine hours a week.
How much does it cost?
For one full-time employee, the total contribution is DKK 3,240.00 per year in 2011 and 2012. You must pay 2/3 of this amount.
Please note that there are different contributions for private and public companies.
Here you can see an example of a table with ATP contributions. Use this as a guideline when you are looking at current contributions (all in Danish):
