We provide support to expats in Vorarlberg in bureaucratic matters and social integration.

A few weeks ago, we announced a giveaway of the wonderful game “Quatschbox” by Bettina Muxel @daz_spielend_lernen. It’s a fun and creative way for children aged 3 to 7 to playfully practise their German skills! 🎲✨

Many families reached out to let us know they would love to win the game — but unfortunately, there can only be one winner. 💛

Warm congratulations to Orsolya Sütö-Karacsoni, and we hope you have a fantastic time exploring and playing with it! 🎉

A big thank-you to Bettina Muxel for making this great opportunity possible! 🙏

Voices of our members

I have lived abroad for some time myself and I assist expats during the onboarding process at Blum, so it is a personal and professional concern of mine to help people settle in the company and in Vorarlberg. From my own experience, I know how many issues expats face and how difficult the decision-making, relocation and arrival process is for the entire family. The Expat Service provides additional sparring partners that help me support internationals. All of this promotes networking and above all contributes to making everyone feel at home in our family-owned business.

Expat Service Vorarlberg for us – as family and individually – is a community where we’ve found friends to spend time with and also to participate in exciting events. These events help to explore and get to know better Vorarlberg, the local people and their habits. We are so grateful that people from Vorarlberg are welcoming and helping the expats with creating this community – we all see, how passionate the Expat V team is dedicated to this project.

The first time I came across Expat Service was for a mountain hike, and I was immediately impressed: by the amazing organisation, the discovery of beautiful places I did not know, the chance to meet people from all over the world, but, most of all, the feeling of being at home and surrounded by a group of friends. And the wonderful feeling was repeated every subsequent time I participated in other events they organized, whether it was a museum visit, a German language course, or a performance at the theatre.

Connecting with other families in the area who are also getting to know a new culture and school system is a great source of support. Understanding all the different education paths through networking using the Expat Service has been a huge benefit to our family.

The Expat Service has the advantage for me to meet other foreigners at regional events, in cultural centres, or simply in bars, restaurants, etc. I enjoy this 'informal' exchange with some colleagues or employees from companies in Vorarlberg about our experiences. Expats then have the opportunity to expand their circle of friends, integrate into the culture and traditions, and appreciate their experiences in this beautiful region.

I enjoy participating at the events organizsed by the Expat Service to meet new people and discover new places. I think this is a great opportunity for new-comers as well as long-term expats in Vorarlberg in order to integrate easily, build mutual assistance, being aware of local events,  and connect with other expats. I am in Vorarlberg for almost 4 years and I am happy that there is this service now, supported by local companies, where I can find dedicated support on expats specific concerns and a network between expats.

For us as employers, it is important and valuable that our employees also feel comfortable and well-supported in their private lives. The Expat Service Vorarlberg helps our expats to navigate various aspects of life in Vorarlberg, whether it's dealing with authorities or leisure activities. Networking and exchanging with others facing similar challenges, help them feel understood and at home.

We very much appreciate the incredibly varied and great programme for our expats - especially the possibility of also being able to take their partners with them. This helps our employees from abroad to get to know Vorarlberg, to network socially and also contributes to Vorarlberg becoming more and more their "home".

Relocating to a new place can be daunting, especially when faced with diverse cultures and traditions. Fortunately, the Expat Service has been a valuable resource in helping me connect with both fellow expats and locals. Their exciting events like hiking, barbeque and city trips created a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere.
Pranav Venkatesh

The Expat Service has become an important enrichment for me. Through its events, it provides opportunities for new employees and families, especially those from abroad, to connect and ultimately feel comfortable. But it's also a great platform for me as an employer to exchange experiences and needs.

As an international company with more than 75 different nationalities, we highly value the newly established expat community in Vorarlberg. By connecting our new colleagues from abroad with like-minded, we offer the opportunity to make new friends get to know the country, people, and culture.
Julia Mosselman
Julia MosselmanHead of People Services, Zumtobel
As an international, English-speaking company with over 50 nationalities, our expats are particularly close to our hearts. Over a decade ago at OMICRON, I personally founded an 'Intercultural Network' to facilitate smoother onboarding for our employees. This is why we especially value the additional support from Claudia and Jakob, as we complement each other perfectly, creating an even better offering and greater value for our expats and their families. A heartfelt thank you for your consistently outstanding efforts!
