The Neutral Free Austria Federation (Template:Lang-de, NFÖ) was a political party in Austria founded on 17 March 2003. It contested the 2006 legislative election under the name "EU Withdrawal – Neutral Free Austria" (EU-Austritt – Neutrales Freies Österreich), but only appeared on the ballot in Vorarlberg, Tyrol, Carinthia, Salzburg and Vienna and failed to pass the electoral threshold of 4%, achieving only 0.23%. Its party program is oriented on Christian politics and centered mainly on the demand to withdraw from the European Union and the establishment of direct democracy.
For the EU election 2014, together with the EU Exit Party (EU-Austrittspartei) which has very similar aims, the party has formed an electoral platform called EU-STOP. In summer 2015, it merged into the EU Exit Party.
