Quick summary: The exemption from fees for property registration in Austria is set to last until June 2026, following a temporary measure introduced by the government.

At the beginning of 2024, the fees for property registration and mortgage registration for the acquisition of a primary residence were temporarily waived as part of a housing package approved by the black-green government. This measure officially came into effect on July 1, 2024, and is limited to two years, expiring on June 30, 2026, unless a legal extension is enacted. There have been nearly 62,000 applications for exemption from property registration and mortgage registration fees in the first one and a half years.
