Visa for Austria from Myanmar: price, documents and processing time 2026

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.

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.

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.

• Your application goes to the state that is your main destination. If Austria is where you spend the longest, it handles the file, whatever the entry point.
• With no main destination, the competent state is the one you enter first.
• If Austria has no consulate in Myanmar, another Schengen state may act on its behalf under a representation arrangement, or the file goes to the post accredited for your country.

Then the application goes to the post accredited for Myanmar, often in a neighbouring capital, or to a state acting on its behalf. Confirm which post is competent with the official source before travelling to a third country to apply, a rejected file at the wrong counter costs the trip and the fee.

The regime follows your nationality, not where you live. If you reside in Myanmar but travel on another country's passport, the rule on this page is not yours. Filing usually still happens from your country of residence, at the post competent for it, but the requirement itself comes from your passport.

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.

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.
