Denmark Mandates Military Service for Women Amid Threats from US & Russia | Firstpost America | N18G Denmark has officially expanded military conscription to include women, making it mandatory for all citizens turning 18 after July 1, 2025, to register for potential service. Previously voluntary for women, the new law aims to boost defence capabilities amid rising security concerns across Europe. Female recruits will now join men in a lottery system, with voluntary sign-ups prioritised. The conscription period will also extend from four to 11 months by 2026. The move aligns Denmark with NATO partners like Sweden and Norway and is part of a broader effort to raise troop numbers and modernise equipment for gender inclusivity.
