Will my business do well in Austria?

11 years ago

Hi, I'm new to the forum and having been travelling to Austria for over 20 years, I've finally decided to do somehting about it - although I'm very cautious..hence my asking for your help with the following questions...I run my own mobile beauty business (just a small outfit really, providing beauty treatments at clients homes) am wondering is this possible to bring over to Austria?
Would I need any particular qualifications other than those I have in England to do manicures/makeup etc?
Do I need to have a certain amount of finance in place or not? and finally I would need to focus on improving my German prior to doing any of this (which I am currently working on) - would langauge barrier be a problem - I was thinking of focusing on the Tirol where there are lots of expats etc. Any genuine help would be gratefully received - many thanks for your time.
