Austria — Austria Red-White-Red Card — Jobseeker Visa
Requirements we check
The full guide
The jobseeker visa is Austria's genuine no-job-offer-needed route: score at least 70 of 100 points on the Very Highly Qualified Workers points test (qualification, work experience, age, language ability, plus bonus points) and you're issued a 6-month national (D) visa to travel to Austria and find a qualifying role. If you land a matching job offer while that visa is still valid, you apply for the Red-White-Red Card itself directly — no separate labour-market test, since the points assessment already did that work.
Cost: Commonly reported around €150, but this varies by consulate and hasn't been confirmed against an official fee schedule in this pass — confirm the exact current fee with your consulate.
