(1) 

To the Congress of the United States: 

Pursuant to section 233(e)(1) of the Social Security Act, as 

amended by the Social Security Amendments of 1977 (Public Law 

95–216, 42 U.S.C. 433(e)(1)), I transmit herewith the Agreement 

Between the United States of America and the Kingdom of Denmark on Social Security, which consists of two separate instruments: a principal agreement and an administrative arrangement. 

The agreement was signed at Copenhagen on June 13, 2007. 

The United States-Denmark Agreement is similar in objective to 

the social security agreements already in force with Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Chile, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, 

Ireland, Italy, Japan, Korea, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom. Such bilateral agreements provide for limited coordination between the United States and foreign social security systems to 

eliminate dual social security coverage and taxation, and to help 

prevent the loss of benefit protection that can occur when workers 

divide their careers between two countries. The United States-Denmark Agreement contains all provisions mandated by section 233 

and other provisions that I deem appropriate to carry out the purposes of section 233, pursuant to section 233(c)(4). 

I also transmit for the information of the Congress a report prepared by the Social Security Administration explaining the key 

points of the Agreement, along with a paragraph-by-paragraph explanation of the provisions of the principal agreement and the related administrative arrangement. Attached to this report is the report required by section 233(e)(1) of the Social Security Act, which 

describes the effect of the Agreement on income and expenditures 

of the U.S. Social Security program and the number of individuals 

affected by the Agreement. 

I commend to the Congress the United States-Denmark Social 

Security Agreement and related documents. 

GEORGE W. BUSH. 

THE WHITE HOUSE, February 28, 2008.
