Holocaust Victims Insurance Fairness Act - Authorizes a State to implement and enforce any law that requires an insurance company conducting business in the State to disclose and make publicly available details regarding insurance policies issued by that company to a policyholder domiciled in the area of the European Continent that was occupied or controlled by Nazi Germany or by any ally or sympathizer of Nazi Germany and that was in effect at any time during the period between 1933 and 1945.

Declares that Congress explicitly disapproves any Executive branch policy or agreement that preempts State efforts to collect Holocaust-era insurance information to resolve outstanding claims.
