Time-barred? The limitation traffic light shows how much time is left

Standard limitation under §§ 195, 199 BGB – free, no sign-up

Length: 0:42

What this video is about

Choose the year the claim arose – the traffic light names the end of the standard limitation period, the remaining time in days and the calculation rule behind it. It also says honestly what it does not cover: special periods, maximum periods and suspension. Free and without an account.

All recordings use fictional sample data – no real cases, people or file numbers. AI output can contain errors and does not replace legal advice.
