Swedish Embassy in Vienna

Overview

The Swedish Embassy in Vienna represents Sweden in Austria and supports the close relationship between two EU members. Its practical work centres on consular help for Swedish citizens, guidance for people moving between the countries, and cooperation in business, research, culture and European affairs.

Visa Services

Austrian citizens travel to Sweden without a visa and may live, study or work there under EU free-movement rules. Third-country nationals resident in Austria who require a short-stay Schengen visa apply through the competent Swedish channel when Sweden is their main destination. Work, study and family residence cases follow the Swedish migration process and must be approved before relocation where required.

Consular Services

The embassy assists Swedish citizens with passport and identity matters, civil-status guidance, certificates and emergency support. Routine services may require an appointment and specific Swedish records; urgent lost-passport or welfare cases should be raised through the embassy's consular contact.

Trade & Export Support

Sweden and Austria trade within the EU single market and cooperate in advanced manufacturing, clean technology, life sciences, digital services and research. The embassy helps connect institutions and businesses while Sweden's specialist trade organisations handle commercial project support.

Service Area

Austria.

Appointment Information

Book consular services in advance. The public counter operates Monday through Thursday mornings, while Friday attendance is by appointment; telephone hours run on weekday mornings.

Special Notes

Sweden's National Day is 6 June. EU free movement does not remove registration requirements for longer residence in Sweden.
