The new policy has ensured that there are now fewer non-Western immigrants and more Western immigrants coming to Denmark.
Denmark is saving over 5.1 billion kroner (£609 million) a year thanks to tighter immigration controls on non-Western migrants, a Danish government report has revealed.
The figures show that the country has saved £5.4 billion since 2002, when stricter rules were introduced.
The main savings are due to the country reducing the annual amount of non-Western immigrants it lets in.
According to the report, immigrants and descendants of immigrants from non-Western countries cost the state 15.7 billion kroner per year, whereas immigrants and descendants of immigrants from Western countries contribute 2.2 billion kroner per year to the economy.
The new policy has ensured that there are now fewer non-Western immigrants and more Western immigrants coming to Denmark.
The coalition government and its main ally, the Danish Peopleâs Party (DF), are predicted to use the findings from the report to further tighten the countryâs immigration requirements.
