About the program

Austria offers more than ten options for becoming a legal resident and obtaining a residence permit. Each option provides various possibilities: with or without a work permit, with or without an option to be employed or self-employed.

Persons of independent means aspiring to obtain residence permits in Austria are subject to the annual quota. This means that every year the Austrian Government announces a ‘quota’, a limited number of such residence permits to be issued.

General requirements towards applicants are as follows: holding sufficient assets to be able to reside in Austria, renting or buying a property in Austria, holding a health insurance and not posing a threat to public order and security.
