Dataset description

In a joint project with juris GmbH, the Federal Ministry of Justice provides almost all of the current federal law free of charge to interested citizens. The laws and regulations may be consulted in their current version. They are continuously consolidated by the documentation centre in the Federal Office of Justice. The legal standards provided are made available in all formats made available for free use and re-use. Important: The legal texts available on the Internet are not the official version. These can only be found in the paper edition of the Federal Law Gazette.

Yes. Selected APIs include a free API quota, so your team can validate coverage, freshness, response shape and workflow fit before asking for a production plan.

Often yes, but usage rights depend on the source license and dataset. We surface source, license and update metadata where available, and can help review terms before a production integration.

Maintained APIs include update metadata where available. For production integrations, we can add history, monitoring and push updates so changes are easier to detect and act on.

Production APIs can add SLA, stable identifiers, versioning support, history, push updates and direct support around the data your product or AI workflow depends on.
