They have been accepted in Germany as well (see

By the way chains are not a general requirement in Germany, only on roads where it is indicated, and in Austria only on vehicles above 3,5 Tonnes:

The funny thing about Austria is that I have only ever seen road signs there that say either "snow chains except for vehicles with winter tires" or "snow chains except for 4x4 vehicles". Of course I have not been on every road in austria
