Hi,

Even if you now (after May 2020) have paid work, you can receive the holiday allowance ("feriedagpenge") you earned while receiving unemployment benefits from your A-kasse.

However there are some requirements:

• You must have used up holiday money earned with your employer(s) before you can receive holiday allowance.
• You are a member of a A-kasse 
• You reside in Denmark up to the start of your holiday,
• You would be entitled to unemployment benefit ("dagpenge") if you became unemployed tomorrow.

Remember to register your holiday at Jobnet.dk at latest 14 days before the holiday starts.
