Overview
The Syrian Embassy in Vienna is Syria's resident diplomatic and consular mission in Austria. It serves people resident in Austria who need entry-document guidance and provides Syrian citizens with passport, civil-status, certification and emergency consular services.
Visa Services
Most travellers need a Syrian visa before departure; visa on arrival is not a routine substitute. Applicants should first confirm that Vienna is competent for their residence and category, then prepare a passport with adequate validity and blank pages, the application, photograph and evidence of purpose such as an invitation, host details or registered travel arrangement. Business, work and family cases require category-specific approvals, while permits for travel within Syria are separate from the entry visa.
Consular Services
The consular section handles Syrian passport and travel-document matters, civil-status registrations, document certification, powers of attorney and assistance in urgent cases. Personal attendance and original Syrian records may be required, so applicants should confirm the document list when booking.
Trade & Export Support
The embassy supports official and commercial contacts between Syria and Austria, including enquiries concerning machinery, healthcare supplies, food processing and professional services. Businesses should establish the competent contact and current documentation route before planning shipments or delegations.
Service Area

Appointment Information
Arrange the consular visit by telephone or email and confirm whether documents must be reviewed in advance. Published office hours do not guarantee that every service is available throughout the day.
Special Notes
Syria's Independence Day is 17 April. An issued entry visa does not replace any separate permission required for the planned itinerary.
