Vienna Daueraufenthalt–EU application with MA 35-focused planning
Use this page to organize a Vienna Daueraufenthalt–EU application before working through the official MA 35 route. Permit Tracker helps track documents, an appointment, filing evidence, and the separate five-year card renewal; it does not determine eligibility or submit an application.
Independent planning service. Not legal advice, not authority representation, and not application submission.
Authority context
MA 35 – Einwanderung und Staatsbürgerschaft is the official starting point for Daueraufenthalt–EU application in Vienna. Specific responsibility can still depend on residence, case type, current permit, and personal facts.
Open official sourceWho this page is for
For third-country nationals in Vienna who are considering the official Daueraufenthalt–EU route. The MA 35 page sets out several pathways and exceptions, so use its online assistant and official criteria for the individual case.
Preparation checklist
Organizational categories. Exact requirements can vary by case and official authority route.
- Passport and current Austrian residence card
- Vienna address and housing-cost evidence
- Proof tied to the purpose of stay, such as employment or study evidence
- Austrian health insurance evidence
- MA 35 appointment trail, filing confirmation, and later correspondence
- Official MA 35 appointment confirmation for the applicable branch
- Evidence of the residence history and route used for the official application
- Filing confirmation and, where relevant, the document trail for later card renewal
Timeline and reminders
Permit Tracker stores the expiry date, marks preparation windows, and helps schedule reminders for documents, authority questions, and follow-up tasks. This page does not promise processing times.
Common complications
- The current title, residence history, or absence history needs the official route checked rather than a simple date calculation.
- A valid current title is nearing expiry before the MA 35 appointment or filing is complete.
- The permanent residence right and the five-year validity of the physical card are being treated as the same thing.
How Permit Tracker helps
FAQ
Can Permit Tracker tell me whether I qualify for Daueraufenthalt–EU?
No. Use the MA 35 online assistant and the official requirements for an individual assessment. Permit Tracker organizes a planning file only.
Which Vienna authority handles the application?
For the listed residence-title routes and Vienna residence, the official page identifies MA 35 branch offices and explains how to book the applicable appointment.
Do I need to track the card after the status is granted?
Yes. MA 35 states that the Daueraufenthalt–EU right is unlimited while the card is valid for five years and must be renewed to document that right.
What should I retain after filing?
Keep the filing confirmation, appointment record, submitted-document list, and any MA 35 follow-up request together.
Can requirements vary by route?
Yes. The official page describes multiple residence histories and additional document categories. Check the relevant MA 35 path before relying on a checklist.
