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“.

Requirements for studying at an Austrian university
