Have pasted this from the B jET forum as if its correct it not only covers private jets but also any aircraft over 2000 KG which also means many light piston twins.
As you might know, since March 31st 2011 you as an aircraft operator will have to pay a newly introduced „departure tax“ to the Ministry of Finance for flights with aircraft with an MTOW of 2000 kg or more.
Regrettably the process of reporting and paying this tax to the Austrian Ministry of Finance has been set up in a quite complicated way. Additionally you will need to appoint a tax representative if you do not have a registered office in Austria.
The amount of the tax per departing passenger has set to be :
EUR 8 for short haul flights
EUR 20 for medium haul flights
EUR 35 for long haul flights
