The collection's contents are described in one inventory, which is arranged by structure and chronology. Deposited in the collection are documents connected with the activities of the Zagreb HICEM Committee regarding the reception, settling, and transport to third countries of Jewish refugees from Germany and Austria. It includes correspondence with HICEM committees in Austria, the United States, Britain, Germany, Italy, and other countries, and with the Union of Jewish Religious Communities of Yugoslavia, the German Jewish Aid Society, the Jewish religious community of Brody, the JDC, the National Committee to Aid Refugees from Germany/Victims of Antisemitism (Paris), HIAS, the Swiss Zionist Union (Basel), the Palestine Bureau (Berlin), the Jewish community of Antwerp, Keren Hayesod, and the High Commission for Refugees from Germany.

There is also correspondence with Jewish emigres and refugees on filing entry documents and on seeking refugees' family members. There are refugee questionnaires, "blacklists" of swindlers posing as refugees for the purpose of receiving material aid, and bulletins of the HICEM central committee on organizational issues and on the activities of the committee.
