Embassy of Austria

Ann Gilbert

Unfortunate experience of Vienna on tram. Unjustly fined 105 euros. When I took a tram ride to the Belvedere, only two stops, I tried to insert euro coins. Not accepted. Then used credit card but I wasn't aware that the card was malfunctioning. Followed off tram by a woman who seized my drivers license and credit cards and gave them to a man waiting on the street. I am an honest woman and would not cheat the Viennese govt for two euros. Wrote the Mehrgebuhen twice. They admitted that machines only took new coins. All in German. Will not reconsider.

We wanted to know about our entry. The employee was very rude, uninterested, and overbearing. We were being played downright stupid and he tried to cut off the call. So if you have questions about entering and leaving the country, it is better not to contact the embassy, ​​because in my opinion they will not help you at all. Besides that, we paid 12€ for a 5 minute call...

If you’re an American citizen applying for a student visa or a residence permit, do it in Austria. Avoid this office like the plague.

Processing of my visa application took quite longer than the official expected time. So I lost $1800 on nonrefundable tickets and missed the award ceremony I was invited to visit in Austria.
