List of Portuguese ambassadors in Denmark
The list of Portuguese ambassadors in Denmark lists the ambassadors of the Republic of Portugal in Denmark . The two states have had diplomatic relations since 1767.
A first Portuguese delegation in 1641 failed to establish diplomatic relations due to the unstable interests of the Danish involvement in the Thirty Years' War and the Portuguese independence, which was regained in 1640 and was still contested in the War of Restoration .
Portugal has had a legation in the Danish capital Copenhagen since 1768 , which became a full embassy in 1957 . Between 1892 and 1945 the legation in Copenhagen did not have its own representative, but belonged almost continuously to the headquarters of the Portuguese embassy in Stockholm and, from 1929, in Oslo.
The Portuguese embassy in Copenhagen is located at Toldbodgade 31 .
In Denmark there are no other consulates of Portugal, but since 2013 there has been an honorary consulate in Tórshavn on the self-governing Faroe Islands belonging to Denmark .
