Searches beyond the Standard Model at HERA

At HERA, new physics processes beyond the SM are probed in e^+/- proton collisions at a center of mass energy of 300-318 GeV. Recent results on searches obtained by the H1 and ZEUS experiments are presented with an emphasis on data taken in e^-p collisions in the years 1998/99 and in e^+p collisions in the years 1999 and 2000.
