Yes and no. There are different tiers.

The lowest tier is kontanthjælp (cash assistance), and it is way less than what is referred to as unemployment benefits.

The rules about these changes constantly as it is hot political topic, but I do believe you can keep kontanthjælp forever, given that you don’t hold too much cash/valuables and that you don’t actively say no to employment.

Pretty much. One has to stay unemployable which probably isn't as easy as one would think.

In theory no. If you can get a job at MCD, you don't qualify for these benifits as they are an insurrance. But in practice, you can stay on benifits forever. The legislation governing this is extremely complex.

Nope, unemployment insurance lasts for 2 years. And requires you to: (a) pay membership fees, and, (b) be actively looking for a job.

They'll give you some flexibility, so you might not have to accept the first job.

If you're not a member or two years are up options are: join and work to regain coverage, work for something around a year or so -- lots of special cases.

Or get unemployment benefits from government. Much less ~1400 USD, requires lots of activities like hunting for jobs, and not have assets exceeding ~10k USD.

minor correction; It’s 10k DKK (about 1500$) in cash equivalents… So you have to “eat your bricks first” (as the saying goes for those who own property).

Oh, I thought it was higher.
