The Affidavit of Survivorship is a crucial legal document used in Austrian property law when one joint owner of a property dies and the surviving owner needs to establish their right to full ownership. This document is particularly important in the context of the Austrian Land Register system (Grundbuch) and must comply with the Austrian Civil Code (ABGB) requirements. The affidavit includes essential information such as the identities of both the deceased and surviving owners, property details, and the nature of the joint ownership. It must be notarized and accompanied by supporting documentation, including the death certificate and property title. This document is typically required by land registry offices, banks, and other institutions to process the transfer of full ownership rights to the surviving owner.
