Danish Braille (punktskrift) follows the general principles of Scandinavian braille, with differences in orthography and punctuation, as used for the languages of the mainland Nordic countries: Danish, Norwegian, Swedish, and Finnish.
Denmark has agreed to accept the EBU guidance proposal, so the EBU Braille code may also be used.
