Frequently Asked Questions

  • Yes — the Red-White-Red Card (Start-Up Founders) is designed for non-EU nationals who want to establish an innovative business in Austria. You need at least 50 points to qualify.
  • Having €50,000 in investment or being accepted by a recognised Austrian business incubator or grant programme earns you additional points — but it's not a strict requirement if you score enough points in other categories.
  • Austrian authorities assess whether your business plan is scalable, innovative, and has economic value. A relevant degree, work experience, and demonstrated investment all strengthen your case.
  • The Red-White-Red Card is initially valid for 2 years. After that, you can apply for a Red-White-Red Card Plus, which gives you broader rights to live and work in Austria.
  • mypaperwork helps you build a strong application from the ground up — including your business plan, supporting documents, and MA35 appointment.
