Morocco Embassy Vienna

Before your visit

The embassy’s address is Hasenauerstrasse 57 in Vienna’s 18th district (Währing).

• Checklist: identity document, completed forms, originals plus one copy of each supporting document.

The embassy and its staff

Ambassador Azzeddine Farhane has headed the embassy since July 2019. Its accreditation extends beyond Austria to Slovenia and Slovakia. According to the Austrian diplomatic list, the embassy has 15 diplomatic staff. Separate from the embassy, Morocco keeps a permanent mission to the United Nations and other international organisations in Vienna; those missions do not handle consular matters for the public.

Embassy or honorary consulate?

The consular section in Vienna is responsible for Moroccan citizens in all of Austria. Four honorary consulates (Eisenstadt, Graz, Klagenfurt and Salzburg) can help with information and some formalities, but passports are normally issued by the embassy.

Consular services

What you can usually arrange here:

• Powers of attorney and other notarial acts
• Certificates for pensions and social security abroad

Ask the embassy about fees and processing times before you apply – they are not listed by the Austrian Foreign Ministry.
