If you do business in Vienna there are some places where you have to go to fulfill the duties,…read moreespecially if you stay longer and have your main residence here. How could I rate the "Finanzamt" financial authorities as fan? Well here comes a very handy trick. The Fiannzamt located in the 22nd district 1220 Wien has to provide its service for the biggest part of Vienna. It is responsible for the districts 2, 20, 21 and 22. Which means you can not always expect a super fast reaction, which "could" be an advantage sometimes. Did you get my message between the lines? ;-) Ok, since a few years the times have changed at the citys authorities offices. As a normal "consumer" you are forced to take a number and wait in the crowd on the ground floor, where you are dealt with in an open space like in the supermarket. (No audible freedom, if you know what I mean). So if you get a letter from the Finanzamt look at the name of your "key account" on top of the page and ask on the ground floor that you want to speak with Mr./Mrs. KeyAccount. Then the groundfloor concierge is taking his key and opens the doorway for you. If you know the floor on which your "partner" waits for you then you can also dive into the elevator, but only if you have clothes like Columbo and carry lots of paper with you. Because the elevator is normaly only for employees, but if you display medium grumpiness on your face they will not be able to dicover the camouflage. As I said above this special "outlet" has a real lot to do, so take your business address in 2,20,21 or 22 and you will really enjoy how nice your partners on the other side handle you, as long as you show willingness to cooperate and to deliver, they are really friendly. Especially compared to the social insurance authorities, this palce will feel like heaven for you. Expect the unexpected.
