Belong Austria

Austrian citizenship takes years. Belong Austria keeps the count honest, from today to the day you can apply.

Answer a few questions about your situation and Belong Austria shows your real distance to naturalisation: which route applies to you, what you have already met and what still stands between you and the decision.

YOUR ROUTE, CLEARLY The standard ten year route under section 10 StbG and the six year routes under section 11a: German at B2 with proven sustainable integration, and the spouse of an Austrian citizen

Every requirement explained: lawful and uninterrupted residence, German language, the Staatsbürgerschaftsprüfung, a secure livelihood without social assistance and an irreproachable record

Each rule dated and sourced from the official authorities: oesterreich.gv.at and your provincial citizenship authority, in Vienna the MA 35

TRACK WHAT MATTERS Log trips abroad and see honestly whether time away could interrupt your uninterrupted residence before it quietly restarts

Practice for the Staatsbürgerschaftsprüfung with full 18-question mock tests under the real pass rules, quick rounds, chapter drills and a deck that re-asks what you got wrong — in German like the real test, with English translations for study, and the official BMI Mein Österreich material one tap away

Try a What if scenario — pass the test, marry, spend months abroad — and see how your finish line would move. The real rules, on a copy: nothing is saved

Update your situation any time and your dashboard recalculates instantly

WHAT YOU CONTROL, WHAT YOU DON'T The years you build, the German you learn, the test you pass and the record you keep are yours. Your province's queue is not: citizenship is decided by your Landesregierung, and waiting times differ widely — Vienna's MA 35 can take well over a year. Belong Austria separates your side from the wait, so you always know which is which

DUAL CITIZENSHIP Austria generally does not allow dual citizenship. Naturalising usually means giving up your existing citizenship, with limited exceptions. Belong Austria reflects the rules as they stand today
