In Brief

This section of the law emphasizes that if a foreigner is facing deportation in Denmark, authorities must consider if the reasons for their deportation are linked to them being a victim of human traff...

Examples

  • Victim of Trafficking

    A foreigner who was forced to work in exploitative conditions may argue against deportation by proving they were a victim of human trafficking.

  • Illegal Activity Under Duress

    An individual arrested for participating in illegal activities may avoid deportation if they can demonstrate that they were coerced as a trafficking victim.

Common Misunderstandings

  • People often think that any crime committed by a foreigner leads automatically to deportation; this is not true if they are a trafficking victim.
  • Some believe that they cannot defend against deportation if they have committed a crime; however, victim status can provide grounds for defense.
  • It's a misconception that all foreigners facing deportation are treated the same; each case is considered individually, especially regarding human trafficking.
