Passport/Visa
The regulations for Tourist and Business visas are the same as for Denmark (see Passport/Visa in the Denmark section). Visitors should specify that they wish to visit Greenland when they make their application. Special permits are necessary for persons wishing to transit in Pittuffik (Thule Airbase), as it is a North Atlantic Territory. Further information and application requirements may be obtained from the Nordic Countries, Faroe Islands and Greenland Office at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Asiatisk Plads 2, DK-1448 Copenhagen (tel: 3392 0000; fax: 3254 0533; e-mail: um@um.dk; website: www.um.dk). Visitors who wish to explore the glaciers and mountains or visit the National Park also require a special permit.
