The Ministry

The Austrian Ministry of Finance is the country's highest financial authority. The Ministry’s responsibilities stretch from budgetary planning and surveillance, economic policy and financial services to customs and taxation.

Divided into six directorates and with approximately 820 employees, the Ministry of Finance today is a modern service provider, continuously adapting its services to the needs and for the welfare of our citizens.

Since the revolutionary year 1848, the Ministry of Finance has had its seat in the Winter Palace of Prince Eugene in the city centre of Vienna. As the palace is currently under restoration, the Ministry has temporarily been relocated into the Vienna Central Station area.
