On 14th May 2019 the amendment to the Act on Property Management became effective and this act introduced significant changes into the principles of the restitution of expropriated property. It is important to remember that the new regulations introduce new deadlines for filing applications for restitution the property. The issue of the new deadlines is the main subject of this article. Failure to keep the deadlines will result in a definite losing the chance for recovering the real property. In the amendment the new regulations can be found that enable previous owners or their heirs to enforce their claims in a more efficient way. Until the time that the above mentioned act came into effect, the Act on Property Management did not determine any restrictions as to the deadline of filing an application for restitution the property. The regulation that has been in effect since 14th May 2019 provides that the application for expropriated property can be filed within the period of 20 years 234 starting from the moment the decision on expropriation of property became final. After this period the right to restitute the property has expired. The amendment to the above mentioned Act fulfils the guidelines coming from the decisions of Constitutional Tribunal from 2015 and 2017.
