Relocation Service Vienna
New to Vienna? We help you settle in – not just with the language.
You’re moving to Vienna for work. But learning German is just the beginning. Where will you live? Which district fits you? Which school for the kids? How does registration work?
The first weeks in a new city are demanding.
At KLARER, we don’t just help with language. We help you truly arrive. No anonymous service hotline. No standard checklist. Instead: Someone who knows the city. Who thinks ahead. Who’s by your side.
Like a friend in your new city – except this friend knows Vienna inside out and helps you avoid typical newcomer mistakes.

Why KLARER?
Vienna Expertise
We don’t just know the tourist spots. We know: Which district offers the best value? Which agents are reputable? Which schools currently have capacity?
Experience with International Families
We’ve helped many families from around the world start their life in Vienna. We know the typical challenges.
Honest Assessment
Kindergarten spot in two weeks? Usually unrealistic. Dream apartment within budget immediately? Rare. We tell you what’s possible – and find the best solution.
Reliability Beyond the Package
Even after your service package ends, we remain available. A question after three months? Write to us. That’s how we understand professional service.
Testimonials
What Our Clients Say
“When we moved from London to Vienna, our employer had already suggested a corporate relocation offer for €12,000. A colleague recommended KLARER – for less than half. Within 10 days we had found a suitable apartment, the kids were enrolled in a good school, and we felt professionally supported. My wife now does her German coaching with KLARER – the combination of relocation and language coaching was ideal for us.”
