Overview

§ 5B Tjebbes Proportionality-Review Pathway (Lov 410/2025) — CODIFICATION.

Indfødsretsloven § 5B (inserted by Lov 410/2025 § 1 nr 2, ikraft 2025-05-01) provides a Tjebbes-proportionality re-acquisition pathway for former-§7 cohort persons whose §5A erklæring window has passed (sunset 2026-07-01).

Cascade significance: First cohort cascade with explicit Tjebbes codification of CJEU C-689/21 doctrine. Establishes DK doctrinal leadership in EU citizenship-cessation jurisprudence (parallels Tjebbes-DK C-689/21 / DK-CES-04).
