Entry requirements may change without notice. Always check the latest travel advisories on the Korean Ministry of Foreign Affairs website before traveling.

Korea and Austria established diplomatic relations in 1892, making it one of Korea's longest-standing European partnerships. Vienna's role as a global multilateral center has given the bilateral relationship dimensions beyond the economic: Korea's active engagement with the IAEA and arms control institutions in Vienna is a constant feature of the mission's work. On the cultural front, Austria and Korea share a deep appreciation for classical music and the arts, and Austrian culture has had a meaningful influence on Korean classical music education. The two countries cooperate within the Korea-EU FTA framework and maintain regular high-level exchanges.

Bilateral trade between Korea and Austria reached approximately $2.9 billion in 2023. Korean exports of $1 billion include automobiles, electronics, machinery, and chemicals, while Austrian exports of $1.9 billion are led by machinery, pharmaceutical products, steel, and industrial equipment. Austrian companies such as AVL, Anton Paar, and Kapsch have established presences in Korea, and Korean manufacturers import significant quantities of Austrian precision equipment and components.
