Skellefteå to Salzburg (SFT–SZG) — Airlines, Schedules & Connections

Swedish passport holders enter Austria freely as EU citizens. No visa, no time limit on stays. Bring your Swedish passport or national ID card (both work). Austria is in both the EU and the Schengen area, so flights from Sweden are intra-Schengen with no passport control on arrival.

For stays beyond 3 months, register at the local Meldeamt (registration office) within 3 days of moving in. You need a signed Meldezettel from your landlord plus your ID. The EU registration certificate (Anmeldebescheinigung) costs EUR 15 and is obtained at the MA 35 office in Vienna or the Bezirkshauptmannschaft outside Vienna. EU citizens can live and work in Austria without a work permit. An Austrian tax number is assigned when you register for employment or self-employment.
