Danish Business Citation Sites & Directories
Written by Muhammad Adeel

Krak.dk and DeGuleSider.dk (De Gule Sider) are the two directories Danish citation guides consistently name first, alongside 118.dk. None of the three is the official government registry: that's CVR (Det Centrale Virksomhedsregister), accessed through datacvr.virk.dk and administered by the Danish Business Authority, a legally mandatory registration separate from any of the commercial directories. This matters most in Copenhagen, Denmark's most contested local-search market.
How this list was compiled
Every entry here was checked against at least two independent sources before being added, and the CVR registry specifically was verified against the Danish Business Authority's own description of it to avoid confusing it with the commercial directories that reference the same underlying data.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Krak.dk the official Danish business registry?
No. Krak.dk is a commercial directory. The official registry is CVR, accessed through datacvr.virk.dk and administered by the Danish Business Authority.
Do I need both Krak.dk and DeGuleSider.dk?
They're separate directories, not brand names for the same product the way some other countries' pairs work, so yes, both are worth claiming for foundational coverage.
What matters most for a Danish business's citation consistency?
Matching the registered CVR name and address exactly across Krak.dk, DeGuleSider.dk, and Google Business Profile, since those are the sources most likely to get cross-checked.
