About the Estonian Embassy in Vienna
Arti Hilpus has served as Estonian ambassador to Austria since October 2025. Its accreditation extends beyond Austria to Slovakia and Schweizerische Eidgenossenschaft. Vienna is also a UN headquarters city, and Estonia maintains a permanent mission to the OSCE and the United Nations and other international organisations in Vienna. Consular requests belong to the embassy, not to that mission.
