About

About the Dutch Honorary Consulate in Innsbruck

Dr. Harald Gohm is the officially listed Honorary Consul of the Netherlands for Tyrol and Vorarlberg.

Honorary consuls help maintain relationships between the Netherlands and local authorities, businesses, institutions and communities. Their work may include promoting trade and investment and helping Dutch nationals obtain appropriate consular guidance.

Dutch–Austrian Relations

Austria and the Netherlands maintain close economic and diplomatic relations as members of the European Union.

Western Austria has internationally connected sectors including tourism, engineering, education and manufacturing. These activities can support cooperation with Dutch businesses and institutions.

Applying for a Dutch Passport or Identity Card

The honorary consulate in Innsbruck is not a regular application centre for Dutch passports or identity cards.

Dutch nationals living in Austria can apply at the embassy in Vienna or an eligible Dutch border municipality.

Start with the official passport and identity card application guide for Austria.

Create a personal checklist for each application, gather the supporting documents and book an appointment. Every applicant must attend in person, including children.

Documents to Prepare

Depending on your circumstances, required documents may include:

  • A completed, printed and signed application form.
  • Your printed personal checklist.
  • Current and expired Dutch or foreign passports and identity cards.
  • Proof of legal residence in Austria.
  • Birth, marriage or nationality documents where applicable.
  • Translations or other supporting records when required.
  • Parental or guardian consent for minor applicants.
  • A passport photograph meeting Dutch requirements.

Separate appointments are required if you are applying for both a passport and an identity card.

Proof of Residence in Austria

NetherlandsWorldwide accepts a Meldebestätigung für amtliche Zwecke showing Dutch nationality, issued by your local municipality or magistrate no more than one year before the application.

Dual Dutch–Austrian nationals may provide a valid Austrian passport or identity card.

Additional documentation rules apply to children, including some applications for a first Dutch passport.

Austrian Birth and Marriage Certificates

Birth and marriage certificates issued in Austria do not generally need legalisation for Dutch passport or identity card applications.

Documents in Dutch, English, German or French can be submitted without translation solely because of their language. Other documents may need a sworn translation, unless a suitable multilingual extract is available.

Collecting Your New Document

The embassy in Vienna will notify you when your new passport or identity card is ready.

The passport application guide publishes collection hours from Monday to Thursday, 10:00–12:00 and 14:00–16:00. Other consular collection guidance may show different service hours, so confirm the current arrangements before travelling.

No separate passport collection appointment is generally required. New documents must be collected or arranged for delivery within three months of notification.

Passport Delivery in Austria

Eligible new Dutch passports can be sent by registered post. The currently published postage charge for delivery within Austria is €10.

If you retain your existing passport during processing, you must surrender it before the replacement can be dispatched.

Delivery of new Dutch identity cards is normally unavailable. Ask the embassy about the applicable collection arrangements.

Upcoming delivery change: for applications submitted from 1 December 2026, the published procedure limits delivery addresses to Austria and Slovakia. Check the current conditions when applying.

Certificates of Life and Other Statements

For a Dutch certificate of life, NetherlandsWorldwide directs applicants in Austria to contact the embassy in Vienna by email at wen-ca@minbuza.nl.

The same email contact is published for enquiries about certificates of legal capacity to marry and marital status.

A dedicated certificate of life service at the honorary consulate in Innsbruck is not identified on the official individual mission page. Confirm any available local assistance before visiting.
