Austria Chapter 3: European Union Member States If you are exporting cultural goods from Austria to Russia you will need both licences, in order to comply with the national and international legislations. The national ‘export authorisation’ ensures that the goods are cleared for export from Austria. The EU export licence is required for cultural goods of a certain age or age and value when they are moved from a Member State to a country outside the EU. What are my first steps? How do I plan this process and how long might it take? First you must obtain the application forms from either the BDA Export Department or from one of the eight Landeskonservatoraten in the Austrian regions outside Vienna. Note that the downloadable forms available on the BDA website are only for export within the EU. For export to Russia you must get the export licence application forms from one of the above offices. Export licence applications may be made by the owner, the seller, an auctioneer or lawyer. Different forms are used according to the type of export licence required and the Export Department can advise on this. You must submit the application form, the list of cultural goods, description and photographs. Applications for export of archives must be made to the Austrian State Archives: http://www.oesta.gv.at The time required to obtain an export licence varies according to the goods, up to a maximum of six months. How do I find out if the art object I want to export is of national significance? Is there a Public Inventory of cultural goods of special interest or importance? Cases are assessed by the BDA on an individual basis. The authorities have to weigh up the interests defined and proven by the applicant against the public, national interest of keeping the goods in Austria. Are there any exemptions for particular cultural goods? See the definitions in regulation BGBl. II Nr. 484/1999. Do museums and galleries need licences for temporary exports (e.g. a touring exhibition)? Do non-profit organisations need export licences? Yes. Museums, galleries and non-profit organisations must apply for licences. Any cultural goods that fall under any of the categories described in the Austrian national legislation and/or EU export licence legislation must be covered by an export licence, whatever the type of applicant or purpose. Museums and galleries applying for a licence for temporary export should follow the procedure outlined above. There are special application forms for temporary licences. Nor- 36
Chapter 3: European Union Member States Austria mally a work of art can remain outside the country for a maximum of five years; however, this can be extended up to 15 years. I am a visual artist. Do I need a licence to export my own work? No. Art work which belongs to “the originator” (i.e. the artist who created it) does not require an export licence under the EU export licence legislation, whatever its age or value. Therefore you do not need a licence to export your own work if you still own it yourself. Note that the Austrian national legislation includes a specific exemption from export licences for the work of living visual artists and for up to 20 years after their death. However, this is only for export to another EU country. For export from Austria to Russia normal EU export licence legislation applies, as explained in more detail in Chapter 2. I am a musician. Do I need to know about export regulations if I am travelling with my instrument? Yes. Any musician who wishes to travel with a musical instrument which is over a certain age and value must obtain an EU export licence. This applies whether the export is temporary, e.g. for a concert tour, or permanent. I am a tourist visiting Austria. If I buy a work of art, how do I take it home with me? The export regulations apply to anyone who wants to take cultural goods of a certain age or age and value from Austria to Russia (or to another country). You must go through the application process with the Austrian national authorities in order for the goods to be cleared for export. If you have bought the art work, antique, furniture or other cultural goods from a reputable art or antique dealer, ask their advice on how to apply for the export licence. Since the application process can take several months, you should note that the goods must remain in Austria until the permit/licence has been granted. You may therefore have to arrange for transportation at a later date. If you are in any doubt, check the age and value of the cultural goods. This determines whether an export licence is required. In general, the EU export controls apply to cultural goods which are over 50 years old and of a certain value. Is there a fee for an export licence? No – there is no fee for the licence. Does the cultural object need to be valued? If so, who will do this? Valuations and other expertise are normally provided by the BDA at no cost. 37
