The timing is not right yet.
文化背景
Danes are very strict about 'seasonal' foods. Eating 'fastelavnsboller' or 'pebernødder' too early in the year is often met with the phrase 'Det er for tidligt!' as a way of preserving the specialness of the holiday. In Danish flat-hierarchy workplaces, saying 'det er for tidligt' to a boss is common and accepted if it's based on a realistic assessment of a project's status. Arriving 'for tidligt' to a private dinner party is actually considered slightly rude in Denmark, as the host might still be preparing. Aim for 'til tiden' (on time) or 5 minutes late. Danes talk a lot about the weather. If flowers bloom in February, people will say 'Det er for tidligt', fearing a late frost will kill them.
The 'at' rule
If you want to add an action, always use 'at' + infinitive. 'Det er for tidligt at [verb]'.
Arriving early
Don't say 'Jeg er for tidligt'. Say 'Jeg er her for tidligt' or 'Jeg kom for tidligt'.

Add 'nok' to sound more Danish: 'Det er nok for tidligt'. It makes you sound less aggressive.

'Tidligt' refers to the point in time (early), while 'snart' refers to the duration until something happens (soon).
Mostly. 'For' implies an excess that is usually unwanted, but it can be neutral in analytical contexts.
Use 'alt for tidligt'.
