Location of the Embassy
Who runs the Ivorian Embassy?
Ambassador Yacouba Cisse has headed the embassy since May 2023. Its accreditation extends beyond Austria to Bosnien, Herzegowina, Croatia, Hungary, Moldova, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia and Slovenia.

The consular section in Vienna is responsible for Ivorian citizens in all of Austria. Five honorary consulates (Bregenz, Innsbruck, Klagenfurt, Salzburg and St. Pölten) can help with information and some formalities, but passports are normally issued by the embassy.
