Helps you feel at home


Moving to a new country might be challenging. There are several practical matters to take care of: from accommodation search, registration and finding childcare or school, to building a new social network and getting accustomed to a new culture and lifestyle.

If you or your partner have been offered a job in Odense and are planning your relocation, or have moved already, International Community Odense is here to help you in the process. International Community Odense is a part of City of Odense and helps international employees and their families settle in Odense, by offering free services before, during and after arrival.
