It announces the Mahnklage: for money claims up to €75,000 the court issues a conditional payment order (Zahlungsbefehl, § 244 ZPO), which becomes enforceable unless the debtor objects within four weeks.

- Notice of faults on a package holiday, handed in on the spot (Austria)The written notice of faults you hand to the tour organiser's rep or contact point while still on holiday: it lists the lack of conformity with dates, asks for a remedy by a deadline, and reserves price reduction, damages and compensation for lost holiday enjoyment. Under § 11 Abs 2 of the Austrian Package Travel Act (PRG) you must inform the organiser without undue delay; failing to do so can count against you as contributory fault. At the foot the rep confirms receipt with date and time. In German.
- Withdrawal from a distance or off-premises contract (Austria)The withdrawal notice for an online purchase, an order by phone or catalogue, or a contract made away from the trader's premises in Austria: you withdraw within 14 days without giving reasons under § 11 of the Austrian Distance and Off-Premises Contracts Act (FAGG) and ask for your money back. The model withdrawal form in the FAGG's annex is free and works just as well; no form is prescribed, and sending in time is enough.

If the request comes with a reply sheet or the authority offers an online reply, you can use that for free. In German.
- Revocation of a power of attorney, with notice to third parties (Austria)The letter revoking a power of attorney — at any time and without reasons (§ 1020 of the Austrian Civil Code, ABGB) — and asking for the document back. It is also the notice to banks, authorities and other parties: anyone who, through no fault of their own, does not know the power has ended is protected (§ 1026 ABGB), so each receives a copy. It takes effect on receipt — hand it over against a signature or send it by registered post. It cannot end a registered lasting power (Vorsorgevollmacht), which ends only on entry in the ÖZVV register. In German.
- Note excusing a pupil's absence from school (Austria)The written note by which parents — or pupils of full age themselves — tell the class teacher in Austria why a pupil stayed away from lessons: with name and class, the days, the reason without a diagnosis and the day the school was told. Under Austria's Compulsory Schooling Act (§ 9 SchPflG) and School Education Act (§ 45 SchUG) the school must be told without delay, in writing if it asks — the same in every Land.

The letter lists the work, the costs and the amount claimed after depreciation. In German; print, sign and send by registered post.
- Notice of sick leave to the employer (Austria)The written notice an employee in Austria gives the employer on going on sick leave (Krankenstand): when the incapacity began, how long it is expected to last and its cause — illness, accident, work accident or occupational disease — but never a diagnosis. Under the Austrian Salaried Employees Act (§ 8 Abs 8 AngG) and Continued Remuneration Act (§ 4 Abs 1 EFZG) the absence is reported without delay, and the confirmation of incapacity (Arbeitsunfähigkeitsbestätigung) shown when the employer asks. No form is prescribed: the letter is your proof. In German, ready to print and sign.
- Notice of illness during holiday (Austria)An employee in Austria who falls ill on holiday does not lose the days: if the illness lasts more than three calendar days, the days of incapacity are not counted against the holiday entitlement (§ 5 UrlG, the Austrian Holiday Act). The employer must be told without delay after three days, and a doctor's confirmation shown on returning to work. This letter records both, with the holiday dates and the start and expected length of the incapacity, without a diagnosis — and a choice for illness abroad, where an official confirmation or a hospital's confirmation is needed. In German.
- Notice of care leave to the employer (Austria)The notice telling an employer in Austria that you are taking care leave (Pflegefreistellung) under § 16 UrlG, the Austrian Holiday Act: to nurse a sick close relative or a sick member of your household, to look after your child when the person who normally cares for it is unavailable, or to stay with a child under ten in hospital. You choose whether this is the first week, the second week for a child under twelve who falls ill again or, once both are used, holiday taken without agreement (§ 16 Abs 3 UrlG). The employer keeps paying. No diagnosis. In German.
- Payment reminder and final demand to a business (Austria)A letter to another business that has not paid an invoice in Austria — as a friendly payment reminder or as the final demand before a court payment order (Zahlungsbefehl). It names the invoice, the due date and the start of default, calculates default interest at 9.2 points above the Austrian National Bank's base rate (§ 456 of the Austrian Business Code, UGB), claims the €40 flat fee for collection costs (§ 458 UGB) and sets a deadline. You enter the current base rate. For dealings between businesses; consumers owe different interest. In German.
- Final deadline for withheld pay before leaving early (Austria)A letter by which an employee in Austria gives the employer a concrete final deadline (Nachfrist) for pay withheld, announcing that the employee will leave early if it is not paid (§ 26 Z 2 AngG; for blue-collar workers § 82a lit d GewO 1859). Leaving over unpaid wages without such a deadline has been held unjustified, so this letter is the first step. It also meets the forfeiture deadlines of the collective agreement. With a receipt for hand delivery. In German.
- Landlord's reminder of rent arrears (Austria)The landlord's formal reminder to a tenant in Austria who is behind with the rent: the amounts owed for each month, the total, a deadline and the account. Under the Austrian Tenancy Act (MRG) a court notice to quit for arrears (§ 30 Abs 2 Z 1 MRG), like ending the lease under § 1118 of the Austrian Civil Code (ABGB), requires a reminder after the rent fell due that states the arrears specifically. You choose which step follows if the tenant does not pay. The court notice itself is not a letter but is filed at the district court — this is the reminder that must come first. In German.
- Revoking a direct debit mandate (Einziehungsauftrag) with the payee (Austria)A letter to the payee in Austria — gym, insurer, club, online shop or collection agency — revoking your SEPA direct debit mandate, still often called an Einziehungsauftrag in Austria. It gives the mandate reference, the creditor ID and your IBAN, forbids further debits once it is received and says how payment continues: you transfer the money yourself, the contract has ended, or you pay from another account. Revoking the mandate ends neither the contract nor a debt. A debit taken anyway is unauthorised, and your bank refunds it under the Austrian Payment Services Act (§§ 65, 67 ZaDiG 2018). In German.
- Reply to a debt collection letter — disputing the claim or the collection costs (Austria)Your reply to a collection agency in Austria that demands money from you on a creditor's behalf: you dispute the claim in full or in part, or only the collection costs, give your reasons and ask for a breakdown of the principal, the interest and every cost item. Collection costs are owed only where they were necessary and proportionate to the claim (§ 1333 Abs 2 of the Austrian Civil Code, ABGB); the maximum rates set by ordinance for collection agencies are caps, not an entitlement. An undisputed amount is paid expressly towards the principal. In German.
- Notice suspending or resuming a trade licence (Austria)The notice to the regional chamber of the Austrian Economic Chamber (WKO) that you are suspending your trade or resuming it after a suspension — due within three weeks under § 93 Abs 1 of Austria's Trade Act (GewO 1994). With the licence holder, the trade, its location, the GISA number and the effective date: what the chamber needs for an informal notice. The chamber also offers its own form and eServices free of charge; the notice needs no set form, and a letter of your own by e-mail or post is enough. In German.
- Notice to the motor liability insurer of the sale of a car (Austria)The letter telling your motor liability insurer in Austria that you have sold your car, as § 71 of the Austrian Insurance Contract Act (VersVG) requires: with the policy number, plate, chassis number, date and hour of handover, the buyer's name and address and the day of deregistration. It asks for the premium to be settled and prepaid premium refunded to your account, or for the policy to move to a replacement car, and for a confirmation of your claims record. Austria has no notice of sale to an authority. In German, ready to print, sign and send by registered post.
