Less than a quarter of Danes oppose a ban on the burqa and niqab, according to a new survey.
A majority of the population support banning the two types of Islamic veil in public, according to an opinion poll carried out by Epinion on behalf of broadcaster DR.
According to the poll, 62 percent said they support a full ban on wearing the burqa and niqab in public, while 23 percent said the veils should continue to be allowed.
12 percent responded 'do not know' while three percent declined to answer the question.
Last week, a Danish model agency announced it had hired the country's first hijab-wearing model.
