Questions people ask

Which visa does a student of mba use for Austria?

Student residence permit (Aufenthaltsbewilligung Student)

Is a licence or registration needed?

Admission is by the institution; professional registration comes after the degree.

What language test is asked?

Check the programme or employer requirement; the visa itself rarely tests language for this route. The platform prepares an English or destination-language CV and letters as the posting requires.

What is the path to permanent residence?

Job-seeking residence permit after graduation; Red-White-Red Card for graduates; long-term residence after 5 years.

Do I need clearance from my own country before leaving?

It depends on where you are from. Some countries require exit clearance for work contracts abroad (for example Bureau of Emigration & Overseas Employment (BEOE) / Protector of Emigrants); students usually do not. The platform checks the rule for your country.
