Many professionals considering moving from South Africa to Denmark often overlook the Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) difference. While a salary in Denmark might look lower on paper, the cost of living could make it worth more.
Understanding the real value of your income is crucial when negotiating a remote salary or planning a relocation. This calculator helps you determine the equivalent salary you would need in Denmark to maintain your current standard of living in South Africa.
Based on PPP data, the price level in Denmark is approximately 0.93x that of South Africa. This means your money goes further in Denmark.
