Compliance assessment in Vienna
Updated: 2026-11
International companies in Vienna face Austrian laws written in German: the NISG 2026 in force since 1 October 2026 with registration by the end of 2026, the GDPR with Austria’s DSG, the Whistleblower Protection Act and the Accessibility Act. Our compliance assessment establishes in English which apply to your Austrian entity and in what order to act.
Your region: Vienna
Vienna is a regional headquarters location for many international groups covering Central and Eastern Europe. Their Austrian entities must meet Austrian implementations of EU law, which often differ in detail from those in Germany or elsewhere. The NISG 2026 is the most urgent: covered entities must classify themselves and register within three months.
We separate group policy from Austrian legal duties and deliver results in English for headquarters. We work remotely from Zug, with invoicing in euros possible.
How we deliver
Austrian entity in focus
Thresholds and duties are assessed for the Austrian company, not the group, because that is how the laws apply.
NISG 2026 first
Self-classification and registration are prioritised because the registration deadline falls at the end of 2026.
Report for headquarters
Findings and the action plan are written in English with references to the Austrian provisions.

Compliance assessment for companies
The compliance assessment establishes in one pass which regulations apply to your company, from data protection to the AI Act, NIS2 and the Swiss ISA, the Data Act, accessibility and e-invoicing. You receive a reason for each regulation, a risk and deadline rating for each gap and, at the end, an action plan.
NIS2 implementation in Germany and Austria
In Germany the NIS2 implementation act has applied since 6 December 2025, in Austria the NISG 2026 since 1 October 2026. We establish applicability, prepare registration and implement the core duties: risk management, reporting within 24 and 72 hours, supply chain security and approval by management.
Building a compliance management system
A compliance management system ensures duties are not only identified once but met over time. We build it to fit your company: roles, an obligations register with owners, a few effective controls, training and concise reporting to management, guided by ISO 37301.
