Alois Haueis was born as the son of Josef and Magdalena Haueis, wealthy innkeepers by profession. After he finished elementary school , he received private tuition. As a young man, Haueis lived for a few years in the northern Italian province of Trentino , where he learned the Italian language . In 1890 Haueis was elected mayor of Zams. Also in the mid-1890s, he founded his own bank in Zams , which he subsequently managed until 1938.

In 1897, Haueis was elected to the Reichsrat as a member of the Catholic People's Party , to which he belonged for ten years until 1907. In the same period, from 1897 to 1908, he also held a mandate in the Tyrolean state parliament . During the First World War , Haueis was initially used as a marksman; later, as a so-called nutrition inspector, he looked after the residents of the Tyrolean district of Landeck .

In 1918, Haueis was briefly re-elected to the state parliament by the Christian Social Party of Austria (CSP) before he was elected as a member of the CSP in the recently founded National Council in March 1919 . Haueis sat in the National Council for around 15 years, until May 1934, where he was mainly concerned with agricultural policy issues.

In July 1920, Haueis became State Secretary in the Mayr I State Government (that was the Minister at the time) in the State Office for Agriculture and Forestry and in November of the same year, when the State Secretariats were transformed into ministries, he became Minister of Agriculture in the Mayr I Federal Government . However, Haueis was only minister for around seven months, and in June 1921 he resigned from his office.

After 1934, Haueis retired into private life. He died in the Zams in 1951 at the age of 90.

Alois Haueis was married to Anna Haueis, born Tiefenthaler, from 1898. The couple had nine children, eight daughters and one son, of whom the son and two daughters died at a young age.
