U.S. Embassy in Austria

U.S. Emergency passports can ONLY be issued during regular public business hours, Monday-Friday, 08:00 – 14:00 (8am – 2 p.m.). We are closed on weekends, U.S. and Austrian holidays.   

U.S. Consular Section Vienna is located at Parkring 12A (Marriott Hotel Building), 4^th Floor, 1190, Vienna, Austria.  Our entrance is on the right, plaza side of the hotel building (** DO NOT go to the US Embassy; you’ll end up at the wrong place on wrong side of town!**)

IMPORTANT: Please note EMERGENCY passports are only valid for 12 months and intended to get you back home to the United States. Once you complete your trip, you must exchange it for a regular passport. Emergency passports cannot be used in some countries (most notably, France). If you are traveling on to a third country, please visit Country Information (state.gov) to see their entry requirements.

PROCESSING TIME: If you appear in person, fully-prepared before 11 a.m., your emergency passport will usually be ready for pick-up at 14:00 (2pm) the same day.
