About the Property Assessment Agency

The Danish Property Assessment Agency (in Danish Vurderingsstyrelsen) is responsible for the valuation of roughly 2.4 million properties in Denmark. We work to provide accurate, uniform and transparent public assessments of real property, and we use these assessments as the basis for calculating the property tax payable by property owners.

We work to build trust in the property assessments and in the property taxation system. At the same time, citizens and businesses should be guaranteed a seamless citizen journey with a focus on open and easy-to-understand communication about property taxation. This major undertaking is driven by our team of approximately 1,400 specialists and generalists.

We take responsibility and work together to deliver on our mission and in the decisions we make on a daily basis. Together with the other agencies under the Danish Ministry of Taxation and Economic Growth, the Property Assessment Agency plays a key role in the financing of the public sector.

The assessment of real estate and land naturally involves some degree of uncertainty. Due to property numbers and property diversity, combined with the very large volumes of data provided by property owners, municipalities and registries, property assessment and taxation is an inherently complex and comprehensive task.

The Property Assessment Agency’s technical specialists work to ensure that citizens and businesses experience accountability and thoroughness in the processing of their cases, and that the tax base is transparent and fair.

In addition, the Danish Property Assessment Agency ensures that citizens and businesses have access to relevant information about the assessment and taxation of their properties. Property owners are offered guidance by phone or chat, or they can contact us in writing via the property assessment portal Vurderingsportalen.
