Terrorism
Terrorist groups, including those based in Syria and Iraq, continue to make threats to conduct attacks in Austria and across Europe.  There is also a threat from domestic-based extremists, including plots that may involve foreign fighters returning to Austria and other countries in Europe from the conflicts in Syria and Iraq.  

New Zealanders in Austria are advised to keep themselves informed of potential risks to safety and security by monitoring the media and other local information sources.  We recommend following any instructions issued by the local authorities and exercising a high degree of vigilance in public places.  

General travel advice
New Zealanders travelling or living in Austria should have a comprehensive travel insurance policy in place.  

New Zealanders in Austria are encouraged to register their details with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade.
