<p style="margin:0 0 16px;line-height:1.7">SIRI publishes each <strong>Indfødsretsprøven</strong> paper with its answer key after the sitting — the June 2026 paper appeared on the test day — and its preparation page holds the 13 papers from June 2020 to June 2026. That archive is the most valuable free resource for the citizenship test, because the test repeats itself: in the <strong>June 2026</strong> paper, <strong>24 of the 35 learning-material questions</strong> had closely matching wording in an earlier paper. We analysed all 13 papers from June 2020 to June 2026 — 570 questions — to show what repeats, what never does, and which questions candidates find hardest.</p>

<p style="margin:0 0 16px;line-height:1.7">The share of repeats has grown as the archive has grown — from 6 in November 2021 to 24 in June 2026. The reason is simple arithmetic: the learning material has a limited number of testable facts, and each new paper draws from the same pool. The current-affairs questions (36–40) are not designed to repeat — none did in our corpus — and are best studied from recent news; the values questions (41–45) repeat in theme and sometimes in wording. For the 35 learning-material questions, working through every past paper with its key is the best single use of study time.</p>

The hardest questions in SIRI’s samples

<p style="margin:0 0 16px;line-height:1.7">After each sitting SIRI publishes the share of a random sample that chose each answer. Matching those annexes to the answer keys shows which questions candidates get wrong. The pattern is consistent: the hardest items are prime ministers and parties, cultural figures, and facts that changed recently.</p>

SIRI answer-distribution annexes, matched by us to the official keys; paraphrased. The November 2024 annex has errors in its header and answer marks, so its figures are indicative.

<p style="margin:0 0 16px;line-height:1.7">The lesson of the November 2025 result deserves emphasis. Denmark abolished its EU defence opt-out in the 2022 referendum, the learning material says so, and yet only 20% of SIRI’s sample answered correctly that it no longer exists. Facts that changed recently are where a candidate’s general knowledge works against them. When you read the current edition, note every “since 2022”, “from 2025” and “after the 2026 election”.</p>

Current affairs: what questions 36–40 have asked

<p style="margin:0 0 16px;line-height:1.7">The five current-affairs questions cover events of significant interest in Danish news in roughly the last six months. We classified the 20 asked from November 2024 to June 2026: politics and government 10, sport 4 (Olympic golds in 2024, the handball player of the year, the 2025 Vuelta, Viktor Axelsen’s retirement), and one each on the royal family, an anniversary (80 years since liberation on 5 May 2025), prices, a security incident (drones closing Copenhagen Airport on 22 September 2025), the weather and an obituary. For 25 November 2026 the window is roughly late May to November 2026. Follow one Danish news source through the autumn and note elections, government decisions, royal events and major sporting results.</p>
