A mechanised company from the Royal Danish Army's Jutland Dragoon Regiment relieved troops from the French Army's 5e Régiment de Dragons (5th Dragoon Regiment) as part of the UK-led Enhanced Forward Presence (EFP) battlegroup in Tapa, Estonia, on 14 March, the Forsvaret, the Danish Armed Forces, announced on its website the same day.

The Estonian Ministry of Defence reported on its website on 7 March that a cargo ship carrying the Danish company's Piranha 5 armoured personnel carriers (APCs) and other equipment had arrived in the Estonian port of Paldaski. This was followed on 11 March by over 100 Jutland Dragoon Regiment soldiers flown by a chartered aircraft from Karup airbase in Denmark to Estonia.

During its six-month deployment, the Danish unit, dubbed the Viking Company, will be part of the British Army's Welsh Guards Battlegroup, which is integrated into the Estonian 1st Infantry Brigade. The 150-strong company consists of three mechanised infantry groups with Piranha 5s, a logistics unit, and a sniper group. Another 70 Danish logisticians and military police have also been deployed to Estonia.

Addressing the change of command ceremony on 14 March, the Danish ambassador to Estonia, Kristina Miskiwiak Becvardt, said the defence of Denmark begins in Estonia.
