Welcome on board!

Hello fellow expats :)

I'm Jasenko and I'm from Bosnia&Herzegovina. My story goes like this:

I'm a contractor for the US company. Working for them almost 4 years. So basically I'm a freelancer and currently working as a contractor. I'm a graphic designer. I'm married and I plan to move to Wien.  I also have Croatian citizenship. Croatia is in EU but Austria has restrictions regarding work permits for Croatians.

I'm curious, do I need work permit to do freelance work in Austria? I can't find that information anywhere. I think I can't get the work permit because of the restriction for the Croatian citizens.

My logic is this: I come to Austria, I work for the US company, I don't take anyone's job spot in Austria and I pay taxes in Austria. So why would I need work permit?

Thank you!

I am in transition between Switzerland and Austria.
I made the experience, that Vienna invites me more often to a job interview than Zürich or Basel.
I guess it won't take long and I relocate.

hi there,

I was born in austria, lived there up to 2 years old, then family moved to malta.

I would like to go back to my roots someday. It is proving hard to find jobs in austria that do not require a very good command of german, I have basic german skills since I am too out of practice to have a better level. I have no problem learning german to fluency when im there, which will be easier cause whenever I visit my family in austria I start talking too rather quickly.

any advice? I have experience in teaching english, working with children, and administration. any job forums you know of? I've been going through a lot of different ones, but hey Austria isn't malta, so God only knows how many there are that I am missing, also, I am aiming for Vienna, since I suppose that's where the hub of opportunities is!

The rent in Vienna can be similar to Sliema.
