The first census in Denmark with genealogical information was taken during the summer of 1787. Unfortunately, this meant that most seamen and seasonal workers were away. The next census was taken in 1801, and then again in 1834. Beginning in 1840, a census was taken every five years until 1860. After 1860, the census was taken every ten years until the end of the century. Beginning in 1901, censuses were again taken every five years.

The most recent Danish census at the Family History Library is for 1911. Census records less than sixty-five years old are confidential and may not be searched by individuals. The most recent census which has been released is the 1916 census. It can be found online at&nbsp;[http://www.arkivalieronline.dk/English/default.aspx http://www.arkivalieronline.dk/English/default.aspx]. The government will make limited searches in the 1920 and 1925 censuses.

Census taking was also conducted in the other provinces and territories under Danish rule: <u>[[Greenland]]</u>, the <u>[[Faroe Islands]]</u>, the West Indies, Trankebar, India in 1835, and Frederiksnagor (now Serampore), India in 1840.  
== List of Danish Census Records ==
Censuses have been held in Denmark at various intervals. The first census of Denmark and Duchy of Schleswig-Holstein was 15 August 1769. The first preserved census was held in 1787, and thereafter in 1801, 1834, 1840, 1845, 1850, 1855, 1860, 1870, 1880, 1890, 1901, 1911, 1916, 1921, 1925, 1930, 1940, 1950, 1960, 1965 and 1970.
 Censuses for the Faroe Islands, Greenland, and South Jutland were not always held at the same time as the national census.
The census of 1845 is of particular interest to genealogists as this was the first to record birth place which is often given down to the exact parish.  


The enumeration date of all censuses from 1801 to 1921 was 1 February. In 1925, it was changed to 5 November.
*1787 - 1 July
*1801-1 February
*1834 - 18 February
*1840-1921-1 February
*1925-1950 - 5 November
The most recent Danish census at the FamilySearch Library is for 1911. Census records less than sixty-five years old are confidential and may not be searched by individuals. The most recent census which has been released is the 1916 census. The government will make limited searches in the 1920 and 1925 censuses. Census records less than 75 years old are confidential and not available to private individuals. The most recent census which has been released is 1940, which will be fully scanned and available during 2016.
The Danish government has been working to index the Danish Census records. Accordingly, the Danish Census records have been digitized and made available at: [https://www.sa.dk/en/ The Danish National Archives]. These images can be viewed page by page. An effort is being made to index all of these digitized census records. Although indexing has not been completed, many Danish censuses have been indexed. This index is available at [http://www.ddd.dda.dk/kiplink_en.htm Danish Demographic Database] census search page. A description of the information available is found at [https://www.sa.dk/en/genealogy/records-registries Records and Registries]. Another location within the National Archives web site is [https://www.sa.dk/ao-soegesider/da/rif/rif-collection/7 Folketællinger (Census)]  See [[Denmark: Census#Online_Census_Strategy|Online Census Strategy]] below for more tips on how to use these websites.
Census taking was also conducted in the other provinces and territories under Danish rule:[[Greenland]], since 1834; the [[Faroe Islands]], since 1801; the West Indies, (now US Virgin Islands), 1841-1916; Trankebar, India in 1835; and Frederiksnagor (now Serampore), India in 1840.
Northern Schleswig (the counties Aabenraa, Haderslev, Sønderborg and Tønder) were under German rule 1864-1920, and no censuses were held in this period in the region. For Southern Schleswig, which  remained under German rule in 1920, there are census records from 1801/1803, 1834/1835, 1845, 1855 and 1860, but they are not complete.

== Kommunal Censuses  ==


Through the years, there have been a few special censuses taken at the [[Danish Kommune|kommune]] level in certain areas throughout Denmark. These kommunal censuses were taken whenever they were needed, usually in the bigger cities. They had the same information as the national census plus extra information (example: ). It is always good to check if there is a kommunal census for the area you are researching, as they can help fill in gaps that national censuses miss.The following are some of the communal censuses available (italicized if available at the Family History Library):<br>

=== Copenhagen ===
The [https://www.kbharkiv.dk Copenhagen City Archive] has two collections available to help you find persons living in Copenhagen. From 1865 to 1923 the Copenhagen police department kept a list of all adult inhabitants. Thie collection is known as the ''Politiets Mandtall''. The lists were updated twice a year, in May and November. These lists are arranged by street address, year, and month. To locate the police district your ancestor lived in, see [[Copenhagen Street-Parish-Police District Index]]. You can learn more about this collection and search the index on the City Archive's page [https://www.kbharkiv.dk/sog-i-arkivet/kilder-pa-nettet/politiets-mandtaller-1865-1923 Politiets Mandtaller]
 
Beginning in 1890 the police department also created a list of all persons in the city over the age of 10. You can learn more about this collection and search the index online at [https://www.kbharkiv.dk/sog-i-arkivet/kilder-pa-nettet/politiets-registerblade Politiets registerblade].
