Is Laser Legal in Denmark? – Rules for Clinics

Yes – professional laser is legal in Denmark.

But its use is regulated and associated with requirements for safety, documentation and correct use.

For clinics, it is important to understand that legality is not just about the machine itself – it is also about how it is used.

When is laser legal?

Laser equipment is legal when:

• It is correctly CE marked
• It complies with relevant EU regulations
• The documentation is available
• It is used in accordance with safety requirements

This means that the clinic must have:

• Safety glasses
• Access control
• Warning signs
• Risk assessment
• Documented procedures

Who is responsible?

The responsibility may lie with:

• Manufacturer
• Importer
• Distributor
• Clinic

If a clinic itself imports equipment from a third country, it may have greater regulatory responsibility.

Are all lasers legal?

No.

Laser equipment without proper documentation or CE marking may not be marketed or put into use in the EU.

Therefore, clinics should always review:

• EU Declaration of Conformity
• Technical documentation
• Classification
