In Salzburg
Number of naturalizations has almost doubled
Following a decline in the previous year, the number of naturalizations increased again in the first quarter of 2024 - especially in Salzburg.
Specifically, according to figures from Statistics Austria, 5377 people were granted Austrian citizenship in the first three months of 2024 - around 63% more than in the same quarter of the previous year. This is mainly due to naturalizations of people persecuted by the Nazi regime and their descendants, who mainly live abroad. For some years now, descendants of victims of National Socialism have been able to apply for dual citizenship - this option has led to an increase in the number of naturalizations.
The increase in naturalizations was seen in almost all federal states. The highest percentage was in Salzburg, where the number of naturalizations almost doubled - albeit from a low level.
