Do I need a visa for Austria from Myanmar?
Discover visa requirements for your trip
Nationals of Myanmar need a Schengen short-stay (Type C) visa for a tourist trip to Austria. It allows a stay of up to 90 days in any 180-day period across the Schengen area.
Austria belongs to the Schengen area, so Burmese travellers must apply for a visa before leaving. The application is made to the competent Austrian mission or its external visa centre. Austria has to be your main destination or first point of entry.
Is a visa required?
Yes. To explore Austria as a tourist, citizens of Myanmar must obtain a Schengen Type C visa before departure. It covers at most 90 days in 180 and, once issued, lets you travel throughout the Schengen zone.
How and where to apply
Submit the file to the Austrian consulate responsible for Myanmar or its appointed provider (VFS Global, BLS or TLScontact, depending on the country). Because Austria is your main destination, Austria processes your request. An appointment is essential and you must attend in person for the biometric capture.
Documents and cost
The visa fee is €90 for an adult, paid at submission. Prepare a valid passport, the completed Schengen form, a recent photo, proof of accommodation and sufficient funds, an itinerary and travel medical insurance covering at least €30,000. Confirm the full list on the official Austrian source.
Processing and tips
Processing generally takes 15 to 45 days; apply at least three weeks ahead and within six months of travel. Your passport must remain valid for at least three months after your planned Schengen exit. A complete file avoids back-and-forth and delays.
Common mistakes
The most widespread mistake is approaching the wrong Schengen state when Austria is the main destination. Beware of insufficient insurance, weak proof of funds and a soon-to-expire passport. Don't pay for non-refundable services before the visa is approved.
