Overview
The Embassy of Japan in Vienna is Japan's diplomatic mission in Austria, located on Heßgasse 6 in Vienna's first district near the university quarter. Japan and Austria maintain a bilateral relationship grounded in cultural exchange, technology cooperation, and trade — Austrian classical music has a deep following in Japan (Vienna is a pilgrimage destination for Japanese music lovers), and Japanese companies are present in Austrian manufacturing and technology sectors. The embassy provides consular services for Japanese nationals across Austria and processes visa applications for Austrian residents travelling to Japan. An Honorary Consulate General in Salzburg provides local assistance for western and southern Austria.
Service Area
The embassy covers the entire Republic of Austria. An Honorary Consulate General in Salzburg serves Salzburg, Tyrol, Vorarlberg, Carinthia, and Upper Austria.
