Documents

This is a real vault. Built from your line, not a template.

Every Austria case gets a document list built from that family's actual line. A marriage certificate appears only where a name actually changes; a death certificate only where the programme asks for one.

Built from your line, not a template

If your case doesn’t need it, you never see it. One of these records is needed for every person on your line, so your own total depends on how far back your line goes — we work it out once we know.

Ordered once, shared across the family

Your anchor ancestor’s records serve every relative applying on the same line. Family members see status. They never see the document.

Cost

What it actually costs, including the parts that aren't ours.

Our fee is $100 a person. Everything else goes to a government or a records office, at cost, never marked up.

Heritage Passport

$100 per person, one time. Whole dollars, no subscription.

We do not publish a government fee for Austria yet. Rather than estimate one, we leave it out — you will see the real figure before anything is ordered.

Life in Austria

Some people want the passport. Some want the country.

If you're thinking about actually going, our sister platform covers what it costs to live in Austria, how residency works, and what the tax picture looks like.

Citizenship first, or country first

A Austria passport doesn’t require you to move. But if moving is the point, it’s worth knowing the numbers before you start a long paperwork process.

Same family, different destinations

Families frequently qualify for more than one country. The free check shows every path, so you can choose on the merits rather than on the one you happened to think of.
