In Austria, there is a 3‑day protection period that applies to all taxes. After these three days, the tax office will impose a late filing penalty of 2% of the tax.

You can deduct the following expenses on your Austrian tax return:

  • general - these are expenses related to employment, education or job search (travel costs, course costs, mobile phone charges),
  • other (home office, family bonus, additional insurance),
  • extraordinary - these are expenses related to chronic illness or disability. This includes costs on dental or medical aids.

You will need the following documents to file your tax return:

  • a confirmation of taxable income (Lohnzettel) from each employer,
  • L1i form if you have worked in Austria for less than 6 months,
  • EU/EWR form (Bescheinigung EU/EWR),
  • other documents proving entitlement to tax credits (child's birth certificate...).

The Lohnzettel (L16) is a form that every employer must give to their employees at the end of the year. It is a certificate of the employee's annual income and the taxes withheld from each month's wages for the previous calendar year.

To obtain a Lohnzettel form, contact your employer and ask them to issue the form. If you had more than one employer, you will need a Lohnzettel form from each of them.

The L1i form is an attachment to the L1 form. It serves as proof that you have no income in your home country and your only source of income is from Austria. On the basis of this form, you will be considered an Austrian tax resident and can thus benefit from other advantages of the Austrian tax system.

The tax office will process the tax return and then pay the overpayment. The whole process takes on average 2 ‑ 8 months from the time the tax return is filed.
