Austrian Passport Application?

Hello friends,

My father was born in Austria but now resides in Australia when I was born. I am wanting to apply for a Austrian passport through decent. I am wondering do I need to apply for citizenship 1st? Or can I just apply for the passport?


Additional Details
O.K more details


I have Australian birth certificate and obviously citizenship by birth, also Australian passport. I have a degree and clean criminal record.

My mother is Australian, But as noted father Austrian. I have his original birth certificate from Austria and he has never become/or Taken up Australian citizenship.

What forms do I need to apply? Do i Need just the passport or do I need the citizenship.

AUSTRIAN CITIZENSHIP BY DESCENT: Child is born abroad, one of whose parents is an Austrian citizen. In case of a non-Austrian mother and an Austrian father, marriage law listed above applies

AUSTRIAN DUAL CITIZENSHIP: NOT RECOGNIZED.
Exception: Child of Austrian citizens who was born in a foreign country and acquired citizenship according to the other country's laws. Also, in exceptional cases, Austrian authorities may permit an Austrian citizen who obtains a new citizenship to retain their Austrian citizenship

LOSS OF AUSTRIAN CITIZENSHIP:
- VOLUNTARY: Under certain conditions, Austrian citizenship may be voluntarily renounced:
- Person possesses another citizenship.
- Person has no criminal proceedings, or criminal penalties of more than six months,
pending against them in Austria.
- Person, if male, has fulfilled required military service.
- INVOLUNTARY: The following are grounds for loss of citizenship:
- Person acquires citizenship of a foreign country.
- Person performs voluntary military service for a foreign country.
- Person has employment with a foreign government that is damaging to Austrian interests.

Sven E,

If your parents were married at the time of your birth you are automatically a citizen of Austria. So yes apply for the passport. You do NOT have to apply for citizenship b/c you are already a citizen. You just have to prove it.
