About the embassy

Japan has two diplomatic representations in Vienna: the Japanese Embassy and the Permanent Representation to the International Organizations in Vienna.

The Japanese Embassy is responsible for developing and maintaining close relations between Japan and Austria. As a representative of Japan, which has been a co-operation partner of the OSCE (Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe) in Asia since 1992, we are also responsible for relations with the OSCE, the largest regional security organization in the world.

An important task of the Japanese Embassy is to promote the interests of Japan, in close cooperation with other Japan-related institutions, as well as to assist and assist Japanese citizens in Austria.
