Got approved in Austria 🇦🇹 in the category workcation, freelancer.
Created a professional remote work portfolio and added all documents I thought would be useful including:
- Company certificate that these exist
- income tax return of my company and salary slip of my employment of the last 2 years,
- remote work agreements signed by business partner and employer (created by myself)
- bank statement from the last month to proof the 500.000 THB (I transferred the money in that month to this account)
In the portfolio I have shown my areas of responsibilities, the online work tools (Canva, Notion, Microsoft Office) I use with screenshots, explained what my tasks are in the company and my motivation for remote work.
They asked for the bank statements of the last 6 month of my company after 4 days and in total the application took 10 days. The visa fee is 350€.
If someone has any questions please feel free to ask! I hope it helps, I haven't seen a post about Austria yet.
