In rem restitution

All deadlines for applications have expired!

Applications for restitution of properties or movable assets of Jewish communal organizations that were publicly-owned (on the cut-off date 17 January 2001) were decided on by the independent Arbitration Panel for In Rem Restitution. “Publicly-owned property” as defined by the General Settlement Fund Law (GSF Law) existed if the requested property (the requested movable assets of a Jewish communal organization) was owned by the Federation (Republic of Austria) or a legal person solely owned by the Federation on the cut-off date, 17 January 2001. Furthermore, within the scope of Sec. 38 of the GSF Law, Austrian provinces and municipalities could give the Arbitration Panel jurisdiction to examine applications for restitution of provincial or municipal property (opt-in).
