More information
Visa information
EU citizens and citizens of Island, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland
do not need a visa at all. Citizens of some countries need to apply
for a visa for stays longer than three months. Citizens of some
countries (esp. Turkey, Russia and CIS-states) may find it difficult
to get a visa for stays longer than 3 months. In this case, we recommend
that you come to Austria for 3 months at first, return to your country
and then come back for a second study period.
For detailed information see our flyer Entry to Austria.
