Malaysia citizens can enter Austria without a visa and stay for up to 90 days. You only need a valid Malaysia passport at the border; immigration officers may still ask for a return or onward ticket, proof of accommodation and enough money for your stay. The 90-day limit usually counts calendar days from your arrival, so book your return flight inside that window.
Whatever your visa status, Austria applies the same entry conditions to every traveller:
Austria lets 93 passports in without a visa and requires an embassy visa from 105. Malaysia citizens are treated the same way as Brunei, Hong Kong, Israel, Japan and Macau. Overall the Malaysia passport ranks #34 in the world with 116 visa-free destinations.
Planning a longer trip in Europe? With a Malaysia passport you can also visit 42 countries in the region without a visa, including Andorra, Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Belgium, Bulgaria, Belarus, Switzerland and Cyprus.
In the other direction, Austria citizens can visit Malaysia visa-free.

Anyone who takes accommodation in a dwelling or a lodging establishment must be registered. A guest in a lodging establishment must register immediately, at the latest within 24 hours of arrival. Registration is complete once the establishment has the guest's personal data (for foreign guests also the type, number, issue date and issuing authority of the travel document) and the guest has confirmed it by signature. The duty lies with the guest, but the establishment may make the entries in its guest register. The registration authority and the police may inspect these records at any time on request. A person who takes accommodation in a dwelling must register with the registration authority within three days. People given accommodation in a dwelling for no more than three days are exempt. The Registration Act sets a fine of up to EUR 726, or up to EUR 2,180 for a repeat offence, for its administrative offences.

A foreigner staying unlawfully in Austria commits an administrative offence punishable by a fine of EUR 500 to 2,500, or up to two weeks' imprisonment if the fine cannot be collected. A person already finally punished once for this offence faces a fine of EUR 2,500 to 7,500 or up to four weeks' imprisonment. The offence can be dealt with by an on-the-spot penalty order of EUR 500. A stay is lawful if the person entered lawfully and did not exceed the time limits or conditions of the visa or visa-free stay, or the period set by agreement, law or ordinance. An entry ban is issued for at most five years, subject to the law's exceptions. One of the listed grounds is a final penalty for an offence under the Aliens Police Act or the Settlement and Residence Act.
