Austria visa requirements for Taiwanese citizens
Taiwanese citizens whose passport includes their identity card number do not currently need a visa to visit Austria for short stays of up to 90 days within a 180-day period for tourism or business. However, once ETIAS starts operating and its transitional period ends, Taiwanese travelers will need to obtain an ETIAS authorization before entering Austria or any other Schengen Area country. ETIAS has no confirmed start date: the EU withdrew its last-quarter-of-2026 target in July 2026 and has said it will give several months' notice. Once it starts, a transitional period of at least six months follows, in which travelers without one can still enter if they meet the other entry conditions. A grace period of at least six months follows, during which a traveler's first entry after the transition can still be made without one.
ETIAS for Austria: A mandatory online travel authorization for visa-exempt travelers visiting the Schengen Area. Once implemented, it will allow Taiwanese citizens to enter Austria for short stays of up to 90 days within a 180-day period for tourism, business, or transit.

Hello, it will take a long time for me to get a visa I hope it worked this time I am 67 years old for older people it is difficult Unfortunately, I don't know any foreign language I have a Vasco device with which you can translate well I was already in Thailand in 2019
I am very happy with the app, it is easy to understand and use.
I didn't get my results of traveling to Austria until less than a week before my trip. It told me I had to quarantine for 10 days when I was only going to be there for 7 for a ski trip. The results were very vague and inconsistent with the covid rules on the Austrian website. Needless to say, I had to cancel my trip that had been rescheduled twice over the past two years due to covid. I am out $2000 because of the last minute notice and inconsistent answers. I want my money back!
Its been 14 days and it has not yet arrived it said 7-10 days delivery
Thank you for giving me the chance to give my honest opinion about my request for Pre-Travel Clearance. What happened is a clear evidence of maximum rating I marked for the services. It didn’t pass 24 hours from the time when I started to apply for until I got the approval. Communication with ivisa team was at any hour within the 24 hours making so the process very efficient. Thank you ivisa team!
Very efficient. Passport photos processed in one day. Will receive hard copy in 2 days
