Applying for a contribution in relation to confirmation or clothing contribution
If you, as parents, are not living together when the child is to be confirmed, the parent who bears the expenses for the child's confirmation has the option of having the other parent cover part of the confirmation expenses. If it is you who bears the expenses, then it is you who may possibly receive a confirmation/clothing contribution from the child's other parent.
You can also apply for a contribution if the child chooses not to be confirmed. The confirmation/clothing contribution is a lump sum which is set at DKK 4,110 (2024).
There are a number of criteria which determine whether you can obtain a contribution. You can find out more on the Agency of Family Law's website under confirmation contribution.
The Agency of Family Law cannot set the contribution if the other party has died or if the child's paternity has not been legally established.
