Denmark will not hold a referendum on the new European Union reform treaty, but will ratify the charter in parliament.
Prime Minister Anders Fogh Rasmussen told a news conference Denmark would ratify the treaty in parliament, where a majority supports the charter.
He said it is a new treaty that is good for Denmark.
The reform treaty, agreed by EU leaders in October, replaces a new constitution for the bloc which was rejected by French and Dutch voters in 2005, triggering an EU institutional crisis.
EU leaders will sign the new charter in Lisbon on 13 December.
A Danish government review said last week that Denmark did not need a referendum to ratify the pact as it did not transfer sovereignty from Copenhagen to Brussels.
The government could still be forced to hold a referendum if a significant minority in parliament demands one, though political analysts consider this unlikely.
