Sikhism in Austria is a religious minority. Sikhism became an official religion in Austria in December 2020. As of 2020, there are sixgurdwaras in Austria with three inVienna and one inSalzburg,Klagenfurt andGraz.[1]
Thegurdwara management committees ofAustria submitted a request to theGovernment of Austria to haveSikhism officially recognised as a religion in 2020.[2] In December of 2020, Sikhism was recognised as an official religion by the Government of Austria.[2] This allows Sikhs to write 'Singh' and 'Kaur' after theirforenames in official documents, rather than listing them as extra names, and officially register as Sikhs.[2][3][4]
