Statstidende

Statstidende (lit.: Tidings of the State) is a public Danish daily newspaper, first published in 1904. Originally it was published by the Ministry of State, but since 1964 by the Ministry of Justice and since 2005, solemnly published on the Internet.

Statstidende is primarily notifications with legal effect on citizens, companies and, government organisations/bodies. Secondly it contains current information from the national parliament of Denmark, the national administrative bodies, and the EU. It is accompanied by Tingbladet (lit.: The Thing Magazine), which contains public announcements of administrative events (such selling and buying of private property).

Announcements in Statstidende are of legal validity similar to official announcements by the government. Until 1947 Statstidende was the only media to hold this, but a similar right was given to the news radio broadcasts of Danmarks Radio, due to a national strike among typographers in Denmark.
