Permits
Visa &
VIS provides help, assistance and the necessary
information in order to register with the
Austrian authorities or to obtain a residence
permit for Austria. There are costs associated
with the registration and obtaining this
residence permit (and its renewal), which are
not borne by VIS. These may be claimed against
the next year’s tax return. VIS teaching staff are
not required to obtain work permits.
EU passport holders (including Iceland,
Liechtenstein, Norway,and Switzerland) can
enter Austria at any time. They do not require
a residence permit but need to get registered
with the Vienna city authorities.
All non-EU citizens require a residence permit
for Austria. In order to receive the relevant
residence title, several administrative steps have
to be taken. VIS will provide information on this
process, as well as help and assistance with the
official registration procedures but supporting
documents will have to be provided by the
teacher.
Public documents like birth certificates,
marriage certificates, police clearances and
qualification certificates from teachers and
their dependents have to be provided in an
authenticated version (“legalisation”) so that
they can be used internationally.
Accompanying family members (dependents)
also have to apply for residence permits. Only
married partners will be considered as family
members and can obtain a residence permit.
