My parents are coming to visit me in Ningbo China. They will bring my newly bought iphone 6 with them.  I payed for the phone with all taxes in DK.

Mikkel, your parents may unpack it, leave the box at home and bring the phone and charger to you. It's safer. Otherwise, they might be stopped by the customs and required to pay the duty.
