A Faroese Dane is a citizen of Denmark who identifies with Faroese national background.
The number of Faroese people that live in Denmark, is almost the half of the Faroe Islands itself.

On average each year, not fewer than 240 Faroese move to Denmark from Faroe Islands, which is about 0.5% of the Faroese population.
