The fonds contains documents pertaining to the Jews living in villages in part of the district that was annexed to the Hungarian Kingdom. These documents include data on the dissolution of Jewish societies and the removal of the city physician in Levice from 1938. Files of 1939 then document the restrictions on the businesses of Jewish merchants after the adoption of the Second Jewish Law. The fonds also contains many appeals and rejections of requests for the return of business licenses. Besides that, there are also documents about the police surveillance of Jewish traders and the confiscation of radio receivers that belonged to Jews. Some files pertain to the enforcement of police surveillance on the inhabitants of the villages at the Slovak-Hungarian border for hiding Jews who escaped from Slovakia in 1942. The preserved situational reports contain data on the cancellation of trade licenses of Jewish merchants and craftsmen. Some of these situational reports contain inventories of Jewish property in the district towns as well as the data on the dissolution of Jewish organizations. The fonds also contains lists of Jews from the individual municipalities of the district, created in April 1944. There are also Requests for divorce, documents about the assignment of Jewish property, lists of confiscated goods from closed Jewish trades, and records of house searches in houses of deported Jews.
