His Imperial and Royal Apostolic Majesty, Franz Joseph I of Austria-Hungary, and His Majesty Umberto I of Italy,

Seeking to avert the unnecessary disturbance of the peace,

Resolving to maintain strong relations between Austria-Hungary and Italy,

Desiring to promote a lasting peace in the region,

Have decided for these purposes to conclude the present Treaty and have appointed their plenipotentiaries and, having exchanged their full powers, found in good and due form, have agreed as follows:

ARTICLE I
The nations of Austria-Hungary and Italy undertake to respect the sovereignty of their borders and nationals.

ARTICLE II
The nations of Austria-Hungary and Italy reaffirm the agreements of non-aggression between their nations, vowing to take no actions against each other or others that may lead to conflict.

ARTICLE III
In the interests of returning Italian-speaking peoples to the rightful governance of Italy, Austria-Hungary undertakes to transfer the following territories: Trentino, from the southern third of the County of Tyrol; the Austrian Littoral, including the port of Trieste and the Cherso-Lussino archipelago and the island of Veglia; the City of Fiume and its district.

ARTICLE IV
With regard to the ports of Trieste and Fiume, shipping bound for Austria-Hungary shall be granted tariff-free access for twenty (20) years. This arrangement may only be altered by joint-consent of the contracting parties, and will be subject to renewal or renegotiation at the expiry of the date.

ARTICLE V
The policies of the government of Austria-Hungary concerning the Germanification, Croatization, or otherwise coercive or discriminatory policies towards Italian inhabitants of territories remaining under their influence (with particular regard to Dalmatia) shall cease, and be reversed where necessary to avoid undue disadvantage to the Italian populace.
