Haavara
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Haavara Ltd. was a company founded as a result of the Haavara Agreement made during the Nazi regime's control over Germany. The company facilitated the emigration of approximately 50,000 Jews from Germany to Palestine.[1]
The Trust and Transfer Office Haavara[2] Ltd. was established in Tel Aviv following an agreement with the German government[3] in August 1933 to facilitate Jewish emigration to Palestine[4] by enabling the transfer of assets through German export goods. The Haavara Agreement reflected tensions between efforts to rescue German Jews and broader Jewish-led boycotts of German goods intended to oppose the Nazi regime.
