US Embassy Seal

The U.S. Ambassador to Denmark is the personal representative of the President and oversees the Embassy and all the federal departments and agencies represented within it.

Officials from the State Department and other U.S. government departments and agencies manage portfolios concerning economic, commercial and agricultural affairs; consular and immigration issues; customs, transportation, and law enforcement activities, political and military relations; public affairs; and science, environment and technology issues.

Our Mission Statement

Our two most important objectives are to advance the prosperity and safety of Americans abroad and at home and to carry out the policy priorities of the U.S. government.

All employees at the U.S. Embassy in Denmark share a responsibility to promote U.S. values and advance the economic, political, and security interests of the United States.  We assist American citizens abroad.   We encourage Danish companies to invest in America and provide U.S. companies guidance and assistance in exporting to or doing business in Denmark. We coordinate closely with the Danish government to deal with the many challenges all democracies face in the 21st century: promoting democracy and human rights; advancing our shared political and humanitarian goals; and fighting international terror and extremism wherever they may occur.
