For employers

Have you found a highly qualified professional abroad for your company or university in Tyrol whom you would like to employ on a long-term basis – or are you already employing international talent? 

That’s wonderful news – and we’re happy to assist you and your international employeesfree of charge!

Relocating to a new country is a valuable and enriching experience, but it comes with many questions. The Welcome Service Tirol team is here to assist you and your international employees throughout this transition – warmly, competently, and with great commitment.

Whether it’s about:

  • residence permits
  • finding accommodation
  • registration requirements
  • the Austrian e-card
  • job opportunities for accompanying partners
  • contact with local authorities
  • or any other relocation-related topic

– we’re ready to assist. We either provide the necessary information directly or connect you and your employees with suitable service centers or providers.

But practical support alone is not enough. For your employees to truly feel at home in Tyrol and to want to stay long-term, it’s not just about answering practical questions. What matters maybe even more is building a sense of belonging – through social connections and a welcoming environment also beyond the workplace. 

To support this, Welcome Service Tirol regularly organizes events where people who have moved here from abroad can:

  • get to know Tyrol and its culture,
  • receive useful information,
  • and most importantly, meet new people and build a local network.

For details on upcoming and past events, please visit our Events page.
