Summary/Abstract: In international trade, it is essential to determine the scope of the law applicable to property rights, i.e. the law applicable to the assessment of rights in rem. Article 41 of the Polish Private International Law Act uses the connecting factor of the situs rei. The competence of legis rei sitae regarding rights in rem should not be challenged when the subject of rights in rem is tangible property. If, however, the subject of rights in rem is not a tangible object but in a claim or other type of a right, then there is an urgent need to seek other ways of establishing the law applicable to the formation of such rights. In addition, there is a recurrent problem with the proper delimitation with the laws applicable to other issues, i.e. the determination of the law applicable to the assessment of the effectiveness of the acquisition of a limited right in rem, and the question of the so-called adaptation and qualification. The purpose of the present study is to determine the law applicable to the establishment of limited property rights. Using the dogmatic-legal, comparative and complementary historical methods, the provisions of Article 41 of the Private International Law Act are evaluated, and conclusions are drawn de lege ferenda.
