Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and more
The Model Context Protocol standardizes how applications expose capabilities to LLMs. Instead of operating in isolation, your AI gains direct access to external platforms, live data, and real-world actions through secure, standardized connections.
This server provides 3 capabilities that interface natively with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and any MCP client. No middleware. No custom integration required.
It’s hard to keep track of different country laws when you don't know where to start.
Right now, tracking down the statute of limitations for a claim that touches Germany, then Spain, and finally Portugal means jumping between multiple legal databases. You pull up one code for contract law, then another for delictual claims, constantly worrying if you missed an interruption clause or misinterpreted where the clock actually started.
With this MCP, your agent handles the complexity. You just feed it the jurisdiction codes and the event date. The result is a definitive expiration calendar date that respects local starting rules and duration limits. It's simple: you get the final answer without sifting through three sets of legal texts.
The `get_limitation_info` tool provides specific, verifiable rules.
You don't have to just accept a generic 'three-year limit.' The manual process forces you to guess at the underlying law. This MCP lets your agent check not only the duration but also the specific logic for starting the clock or if there are known causes of interruption that could reset the timeline.
That granular detail is what separates a good estimate from an actionable legal finding. It's reliable, repeatable, and immediately available.
What you can do with this MCP connector
Dealing with multi-country legal claims means checking dozens of different codes just to find the expiration date. This MCP handles that complexity. You can use your agent to pinpoint exact statutes of limitations across key European nations like Germany, France, Spain, and Portugal. Need to know if a claim expires next Tuesday or in three years? Simply input an event date, and the tool calculates the precise calendar day it lapses.
It goes beyond just saying 'three years' by checking for start point logic and interruption causes specific to the relationship type. Connecting this MCP through Vinkius makes sure that no matter which AI client you use—Claude, Cursor, or anything else—you get access to one reliable source for international legal tracking.
This is how you keep your legal deadlines accurate without having a team of specialized jurisdictional analysts on retainer.

How EU Limitation Periods Calculator MCP Works
- 1 First, confirm that your specific country is supported and then use
get_limitation_infoto retrieve the required duration and rules. - 2 Next, provide a known starting event date and run
calculate_expiry_dateto pinpoint the exact calendar day of expiration for that claim. - 3 Finally, if you're unsure which countries are covered, call
list_supported_jurisdictionsto get an immediate list of all available jurisdictions.
The bottom line is you get a single source of truth for complex international legal deadlines.
Who Is EU Limitation Periods Calculator MCP For?
Anyone whose job involves tracking multi-national legal risk—compliance officers, in-house counsel, or specialized financial analysts. You're the person who gets anxious looking at a calendar and realizing a critical deadline passed last week because you were checking three different time zones.
Uses this MCP to audit company exposure across multiple European markets, ensuring no regulatory statute of limitations is breached.
Runs quick checks on potential litigation timelines for clients in different countries (Germany, France, etc.) without consulting an external firm first.
Determines the validity window of financial claims or contracts that span multiple EU member states before they are considered statute-barred.
What Changes When You Connect
- Stop guessing on deadlines. Use
calculate_expiry_dateto get the exact calendar date a claim expires, not just an estimated year count. - Avoid jurisdictional errors by calling
list_supported_jurisdictionsfirst. You'll always know which European countries are covered before you start your research. - Go beyond simple time counting. The
get_limitation_infotool tells you the specific rules—like how interruption or starting points work—for a given legal relationship. - Save hours of manual cross-referencing. Instead of jumping between German, French, and Spanish laws, your agent handles the complexity in one place.
- Speed up compliance audits. You can quickly check multiple jurisdictions (DE, FR, ES, PT) against known event dates to map out all potential legal risks.
Real-World Use Cases
Investigating a cross-border breach of contract.
A company discovers a client breached a contract in Portugal (PT). Instead of calling four different lawyers, the agent uses get_limitation_info to determine the exact limitation period for that specific type of contractual claim before running calculate_expiry_date with the date of the breach.
Auditing old financial debts.
The finance team needs to know if a debt from Spain (ES) is still recoverable. They first use list_supported_jurisdictions to confirm coverage, then run get_limitation_info for the relevant relationship type to validate the statute.
Planning litigation timelines.
A law firm is advising on a potential claim starting in 2023. They use calculate_expiry_date with the specific jurisdiction code to give their client an accurate, definitive deadline that won't change.
The Tradeoffs
Treating all EU laws the same.
Assuming a three-year statute of limitations applies everywhere in Europe for every type of claim, ignoring local differences like interruption rules.
→
Never assume. Always run get_limitation_info first to confirm the standard duration and specific start point logic based on the country code.
Ignoring date precision.
Saying a claim expires 'sometime in 2030' instead of giving the exact calendar day it lapses, which can cost millions in missed filings.
→
Use calculate_expiry_date every time you need to confirm an endpoint. It provides the specific year, month, and day.
Skipping jurisdictional checks.
Trying to run a calculation for a country that isn't covered by the tool, leading to vague or incorrect 'estimated' results.
→
Always start with list_supported_jurisdictions to ensure your required jurisdiction is officially supported before proceeding.
When It Fits, When It Doesn't
Use this MCP if your primary problem is determining the exact legal validity window of a claim that crosses multiple European borders. You need precise, auditable dates based on complex jurisdictional rules (e.g., 'Does French law treat contractual claims differently than German law?'). Don't use it if you just need basic date math or general contract drafting help; those are simpler tasks. If your needs involve defining a new legal principle or interpreting ambiguous case law, this tool won't help—it only calculates based on existing law. It is a deadline calculator, not a legal advisor.
