Who runs the Tunisian Embassy?
Ambassador Samia Ilhem Ammar has headed the embassy since January 2024. From Vienna, the embassy is also responsible for Österreich, Croatia, Slovenia, Bosnien and Herzegowina. The Austrian Foreign Ministry’s diplomatic list names 7 accredited diplomats. Do not confuse the embassy with Tunisia’s permanent mission to the United Nations and other international organisations in Vienna: that mission deals with multilateral diplomacy only.
Embassy or honorary consulate?
The consular section in Vienna is responsible for Tunisian citizens in all of Austria. Four honorary consulates (Eisenstadt, Graz, Salzburg and Vienna) can help with information and some formalities, but passports are normally issued by the embassy.
Consular services
What you can usually arrange here:
- Certificates for pensions and social security abroad
Requirements change from time to time – confirm them before you collect documents.
Do I need an appointment?
Public hours are published, so short matters can often be handled without booking. Passport applications may still require an appointment.
