Austria Extends Border Controls with Slovenia and Hungary Until November 2025
In accordance with the amendment to the regulation issued by the Austrian Federal Minister of the Interior, temporary border controls at the borders with the Republic of Slovenia and Hungary have been extended until November 11, 2025.
This is yet another decision to continue control measures at the internal borders of the Schengen Area, which – according to the authorities in Vienna – aims to enhance security and combat illegal migration. The regulation represents a formal amendment to the previously existing legal framework in this area and takes effect immediately.
Carriers and drivers should be prepared for possible document checks when crossing the Austrian borders with Slovenia and Hungary – including on the EU side.
