"When moving to Vienna, it is important to remember to pack comfortable, warm clothes for the cooler months, such as sweaters, scarves, and jackets. An umbrella is also a necessity as Vienna is often subject to frequent rain. Basic toiletries and medication should also be brought, and if staying long-term, it is recommended to bring enough supplies to last a few months before needing to restock. Documents such as passport, visa, birth certificate, and other important papers should be brought and kept in a safe place. You should also remember to pack any important items that can’t be replaced, such as sentimental belongings. Finally, don’t forget to bring a knife, fork, spoon and other basic kitchen items, as well as some paper products for the kitchen," commented one expat who made the move to Vienna, Austria, Austria.
