Overview
The Honorary Consulate General of Japan in Salzburg provides local consular assistance for Japanese nationals in western and southern Austria. The Honorary Consul General is Kommerzialrat Peter Exner, in post since 2006. The consulate does not have authentication, passport, or visa authority — these services are handled exclusively by the Japanese Embassy in Vienna. Salzburg's world-famous music festival tradition and Mozart heritage make it a particularly significant destination for Japanese visitors to Austria, and the consulate serves as a local contact point for the Japanese community in the region. Emergency contact: +43 664 621 00 95.
Service Area
The consulate covers Salzburg, Tyrol, Vorarlberg, Carinthia, and Upper Austria. For passport, visa, and authentication services, contact the Japanese Embassy in Vienna (+43 1 531 92 0).
