All individuals – both those employed by Bellagroup and those conducting temporary tasks at the Bellagroup location – must comply with Danish legislation regarding work permits and registrations.

Please follow this link to a GUIDE, which provides an overview of the common types of visas and permits, as well as the exceptions that apply to them. You will also find a guide to the RUT registration, which must be completed when foreign employers send employees to provide a service to Denmark.

Please note that this is a complex legal area with many rules and exceptions. This GUIDE has been prepared to provide a clear understanding of the current set of regulations but cannot be used as a definitive conclusion regarding whether work permits are required in individual cases.

Information regarding RUT:
RUT registration allows foreign companies to register services that will be performed in Denmark. When a foreign company plans to perform work in Denmark, it must register the service. This includes the name of the company and the individual employees who will be performing the work, the contractor for whom the work will be performed and when/where the work will be carried out. Detailed information about the registration in RUT is available in the RUT Registration Guidelines.

For further assessment, guidance, as well as approval of visas, work permits, and registration of foreign workers, we refer you to the following authorities:

The Danish Agency for International Recruitment and Integration (SIRI): www.siri.dk

Danish Foreign Services: www.nyidanmark.dk

Boring, screwing, nailing, or the use of paint, glue, adhesive stickers, fixtures of any kind or anything that can damage the structural elements of the building (floor, walls, ceiling, pillars…) are not allowed. In case of damage of the facilities, the cost of repair or replacement will be charged to the exhibitor.

In addition to the above, please consider also the guidelines below from Bella Center Copenhagen:
If you need to use sticking material on Bella Center Copenhagen’s stand walls, floors or fascia boards, you must use DuploColl 43102, Tesa tape 4964 or TESA Power-Strips, as these can be removed easily without leaving marks/glue residue. Onsite, you can purchase DuploColl as well as wall hooks for lightweight items such as poster frames. Please note that if you fail to remove sticking material residues from stand surfaces, floors etc. on departure, you will be invoiced for cleaning.

If you fail to remove the stand materials and your own carpets from the stand, Bella Center Copenhagen will ensure that they are removed and environmentally sorted. You may be invoiced for this service.

Disposal of Material
It is obligatory to collect and dispose of all material during the build-up or dismantling of the event.
When the dismantling period is over, the exhibitor loses any right to claim losses or damage to property left behind. Any costs incurred by Bella Center Copenhagen in removing this property will be charged to the exhibitor.

Fire Regulations

• Booth material and fittings must be non-flammable or impregnated with fire-retardant chemicals. (at least DIN4102 B1 or EN13501-1 A2/B/C -s3 d2)
• As a general rule, easily inflammable synthetic substances, foam polyester, and no fireproof straw and reeds are prohibited.
• Storage paint liquids, gas or other inflammable substances in the booth space is forbidden.
• The use/storage of inflammable substances is forbidden (liquids, gas or other). For any doubt for these substances contact the organizers or the Bella Center Copenhagen.

In addition to the above, please consider also the guidelines below from Bella Center Copenhagen:

The Danish Emergency Management Act (Beredskabsloven) paragraph 71 states:

• The following shall be punishable by a fine

1. Any individual who fails to exercise proper caution in the use of fire, light, matches, ash, inflammable substances, and any other substances or articles which may cause or contribute to fire, or who fails to ensure that persons belonging to the household or enterprise of the individual exercise such caution; and
2. Any individual who owns or makes use of electrical devises or other light, heating, power plant or machinery, which may cause or contribute to fire, or who makes use of such systems or devices or allows them to be used, regardless of them not being in good condition.

• It is therefore extremely important that you ensure that your stand complies with the following:
  • Coffee-makers, electric kettles, photocopiers/printers, refrigerators and other electrical appliances in backrooms require that you mount a CO2 hand-held fire extinguisher (min. 5 kg) which is visible and accessible.
  • Bioethanol stoves must be installed according to the supplier’s instructions and safety specifications. It is not permitted to carry out any type of fuel decanting within exhibition opening hours. Moreover, it is not permitted to store any additional fuel on the stand, and the stove’s combustion chamber must be covered at closing time if the stove still contains fuel. Appropriate fire extinguishing equipment must be available on the stand.
  • Nothing containing inflammable or explosive liquids may be brought into the halls, unless agreed with Bella Center Copenhagen (see also the section about Gas storage further down in this document).
  • Candles are allowed with the following conditions: Candles must be secured against over tipping and be placed in solid candlesticks on non-flammable surfaces. Candles must not be placed near textiles, and they must not drip. If they pose a safety hazard, Bella Center Copenhagen may require that the candles are blown out and/or removed from the stand.
  • All fire technical installations such as emergency exits, fire hoses, fire cabinets, call points and fire alarms must not be hidden, obstructed or covered with decorations. All equipment for firefighting placed in the hall must always be visible and fully accessible.
  • Empty flammable packaging and stock must be continually removed from the hall.
  • Use of smoke or pyro must be arranged with Bella Center Copenhagen before arrival. A fire guard may be required, which will be subject to a fee.

Covered stands
Guidelines from Bella Center Copenhagen
As the halls have an automatic sprinkler system, there are limits to how you can cover your stand.

All conditions regarding covering of stands and special areas, such as vehicles, tents and containers, must be agreed with Bella Center Copenhagen. We reserve the right to prohibit covering if it conflicts with the fire strategy in the hall. Therefore, you must inform about the type of covering, size and materials.

If the fire strategical conditions allow it, you may cover your stand. Coverings of more than 9m2 should be constructed with water permeable materials. You can also construct a firm covering, such as wooden panels, as long as the total firm covering does not extend more than 40% of the covered area.

If you have a firm covering of more than 9m2, you are obliged to establish extra sprinklers on the stand. Sprinkling must be established according to the description about sprinkling on the stand (please see below in this section).

On special stands, for example vehicles, tents or containers of more than 9m2, where it is not possible to establish extra sprinklers, a dedicated fire strategy for the stand must be agreed with Bella Center Copenhagen. The fire strategy contains handheld fire-fighting equipment, fire dedicated surveillance and intervention procedures on the stand, which will induce security related costs for you as an exhibitor.

Dispensations for the above can be given only by Bella Center Copenhagen based on a specific evaluation of the stand, area and present risks. You must apply for a dispensation eight weeks before the event start, as Bella Center Copenhagen may need to apply to the authorities.

The sprinkler system can be installed by Bella Center Copenhagen, and we are happy to provide a non-binding quotation for the work. Connection to mail sprinkler pipes must always be undertaken by Bella Center Copenhagen. The rest of the sprinkler system may be installed by Bella Center Copenhagen or another authorized technician (according to SKAFOR’s regulations).

Materials
Guidelines from Bella Center Copenhagen
According to the Regulation on operational requirements (Bekendtgørelsen om driftsmæssige forskrifter) 14.6/14.7, all decoration material must be safeguarded as class B.

Speakers and other sound devices should be positioned to direct sound inward (to be contained within the booth) rather than outward (toward aisles and other exhibitor booths).

It is difficult to establish decibel level restrictions. If an exhibitor or attendee is standing within ~3 meters of an exhibitor’s booth and cannot carry on a normal voice-level conversation, the noise source is too loud.
