The Treaty of Szatmár (or the Peace of Szatmár) is signed at Szatmár (now Satu Mare, Romania) on April 30, 1711 between Holy Roman Emperor Charles VI, Hungarian Commander-in-Chief Sándor Károlyi and Imperial Field Marshal János Pálffy.

Based on the terms of the accord, Charles promises to maintain the integrity of both Transylvanian and Hungarian estates.

Moreover, the accord officially ends the Kuruc Rebellion led by Francis II Rákóczi.

The impact of the treaty is evident on May 1, 1711, when twelve thousand former advocates of Rákóczi swear allegiance to the Habsburg dynasty in the fields outside of Majtény in Szatmár.
