How much do I need to invest for the Self-employed Key Worker Red-White-Red Card?

A €100,000 investment transfer to Austria is one of the explicit ways to show the required macroeconomic benefit. If your case rests on capital, you should be prepared to document the source and the transfer of those funds.

Investment is not the only path, however. The benefit test can also be met through creating or securing jobs, transferring know-how or new technologies, or being economically significant for the region. Applicants often combine elements, but meeting at least one criterion convincingly is what matters.
