Nov 7, 2019 at 13:25 comment added Jeremias Epperlein @Rourke I see, if you allow rotations of the tiles then I think the problem is still open. I am also not sure about tilings of $\mathbb{R}^2$ in contrast to $\mathbb{Z}^2$.
Nov 7, 2019 at 11:58 comment added Joseph O'Rourke @JeremiasEpperlein: Thanks; I was unaware of this paper. Abstract: "As a consequence, the problem whether a given finite set $F$ tiles $\mathbb{Z^2}$ is decidable." Curiously he does not state this in the body of the paper, only: "Corollary 1.2. The problem whether a given finite set $F$ tiles $\mathbb{Z^2}$ by translations is decidable."
Nov 7, 2019 at 8:23 comment added Jeremias Epperlein I think this is known to be decidable now, see Siddhartha Bhattacharya, Periodicity and decidability of tilings of Z^2, arxiv.org/abs/1602.05738, which is published now in the American Journal of Mathematics.
