Copenhagen (dpa) - Schleswig-Holstein receives 55,000 doses of the vaccine from the Swedish-British manufacturer Astrazeneca from Denmark.
As the Danish government announced on Tuesday evening, this is a type of loan.
The vaccination doses should be reimbursed after an agreed period.
However, Denmark has decided to stop using the Astrazeneca vaccine Vaxzevria itself because of the risk of blood clots.
The government has not yet decided what to do with their other Astrazeneca cans it has purchased.
Health Minister Magnus Heunicke said he was in dialogue with several countries.
"If we can barter with some countries where we can send Astrazeneca vaccines to them and get some of their Pfizer vaccines back, that is of course extremely interesting," said Heunicke.

It is also being discussed whether it is possible to give Vaxzevria to volunteers.
270,000 cans are currently stored in Denmark, and another 350,000 cans are expected in May, reported the Danish agency Ritzau.
