Why this verdict
Danish citizens' entry guidance is based on Tonga's official Denmark 30-day visitor visa on arrival. The Government of Tonga lists this nationality as eligible to be issued a 30-day visitor visa on arrival, subject to entry conditions. This guidance is intentionally conservative: ordinary passport, short visitor travel only. Work, business, education, residence, extensions, airline handling, onward-entry documents, health/character issues and Tonga immigration discretion can change the practical answer. Reconfirm on the official Government of Tonga immigration source before booking.
