Why dont you just buy it from actual shops? EDIT: For most things it will most likely end up being much more expensive if you import them over the internet... As far as i know: non-EU import Under 80 kr. Handling fee 80 - 1.150 kr. Handling fee, VAT and Import fee Over 1.150 kr. Handling fee, VAT, Import fee and Customs fee EU import: Handling fee Apart from that i believe that there are special restrictions on import of animal products (i presume that Protein Powder is an animal product). If you should at some time in the future think of importing chocolate, tobacco or alcohol i would like to warn you that those wares are subject to extra fees. And as all ways you will have to pay for the seller to send you your goods, so in all likelihood you its much better to buy stuff in the real world. And by the way, over 5.5 millions live in Denmark and as such buys stuff in Denmark. If it generally would be cheaper to import stuff over the internet, dont you think we would shop online all the time?

Can't provide you with any websites, sorry, just wanted to warn you to read the Danish import rules first if you are buying from outside the EU, so that you don't get a nasty surprise with VAT, customs fees, and handling fees if the package is stopped in the Danish customs. Some items can end up more expensive than if you had simply bought them here.

Try amazon.co.uk I think they'll have most of that stuff and because they ship from Great Britain you won't be charged any import taxes. (You will still have to pay VAT but Amazon will handle that.)

Welcome to the cost of living in Denmark. If you have friends in another EU country get them to send it to you as a gift. normally good under 1500 DKK wont be liable to tax. go for a trip to germany and get the stuff yourself although you would have to buy a lot to make it worthwhile.
