An Act amending the act of April 9, 1929 (P.L.343, No.176), known as The Fiscal Code, in disposition of abandoned and unclaimed property, further providing for certificate of finder registration and for notice and publication of lists of property subject to custody and control of the Commonwealth under this article.
HB 1786 updates Pennsylvania's unclaimed property procedures under the Fiscal Code. It requires finders of unclaimed property to register certificates and mandates clearer notice and publication of property lists held by the Commonwealth. The bill clarifies how the state manages and disposes of abandoned property, directly affecting property finders and the state treasury. These changes aim to improve transparency and efficiency in returning unclaimed assets to rightful owners.
