Tax News (HU) - Company registration and tax registration rules tightened

At the beginning of 2012, several changes were introduced that affected the registration of companies in Hungary. As a result, the procedure became more expensive, slower and more complicated. Before the issuance of the tax identification number, a separate tax registration procedure is carried out. The tax authority examines - based on the reported data and from the data received from the Company Court - the circumstances that could hinder the issuance of a tax number based on the law. It is possible to appeal against the tax authority's decision, but please beware the short deadlines. (This article is available in Hungarian and German.)
