If there is not individual box present for this citizenship, then please mark "other" and indicate this other citizenship in the text line. Persons with unclear citizenship mark "other" and enter "unclear."

Enumerator guideline:
Dual citizenships are also surveyed in the population census. For that reason it is especially important that Austrians who also possess a foreign citizenship indicate both.

Purpose of the question:
Citizenship is a requirement for the determination of the so-called "number of citizens." Based on this the mandates per electoral district is calculated. Further, citizenship serves the determination of the number and structure of the foreigners living in Austria, who differ significantly from nationals in demographic, social and economic respects, as well as the assessment of the many foreigner questions.
