The production, use and non-commercial distribution of copies in electronic or printed form are permitted, provided that the content remains unchanged and that its source is identified as the BMVIT.

Liability:

The Federal Ministry of Transport, Innovation and Technology operates this website in order to improve communication between and with public authorities and to provide public information on the areas of responsibility and initiatives of the Ministry.

The ministry does not accept any liability for the content of information contained on this site or any other web page of the BMVIT. The BMVIT also reserves the right to add to its website and to alter or delete information at any time.

This online facility contains links to websites of other providers. The BMVIT takes no responsibility for the content of websites accessed by means of links. We have carefully selected these links; when they were first established, we examined their relevant content. Links, however, can be altered at any time. The content of linked pages may therefore have been altered without the knowledge of the BMVIT. It is not our intention to monitor linked content continuously, nor would it be possible for us to do so. We therefore distance ourselves explicitly from any content that may give rise to prosecution under criminal or liability law or is contrary to accepted moral standards. For loss or damage arising from the use, or loss of use, of other providers’ web pages, sole responsibility lies with the provider of the linked page.

In spite of our best efforts, we cannot guarantee that the information on our website is entirely accurate and up to date. Defects and errors brought to our attention are corrected without delay.

Legal acts of the Republic of Austria that have been published in the Federal Legal Information System (Rechtsinformationssystem des Bundes - RIS) are deemed to be binding.

We endeavour to prevent the occurrence of technical faults as far as possible; we cannot guarantee, however, that our service will not be interrupted or otherwise impaired by faults.

The data-processing registration number (DVR number) allocated by the Austrian Data Protection Commission to the Federal Ministry of Transport, Innovation and Technology is 0000175.
