Understanding Hungarian Tax and Accounting Obligations

Foreign-owned Hungarian companies must comply with:

• Hungarian corporate tax regulations,

• VAT and local tax rules,

• strict accounting and reporting requirements,

• deadlines enforced by the Hungarian tax authority (NAV).

Language barriers and unfamiliar local practices often increase compliance risks.
That is why professional legal supervision is essential — even when accounting is outsourced.

Tax Planning and Optimization for Foreign Owners

We help foreign entrepreneurs structure their businesses in a way that is both legally compliant and tax-efficient.

Our tax planning services include:

• selecting the optimal tax structure,

• aligning ownership and management with tax considerations,

• harmonizing Hungarian and international tax rules,

• avoiding double taxation through proper planning.

Every solution is customized to the client’s business model and long-term goals.

​

Legal Control of Accounting Processes

Accounting errors are among the most common reasons for tax authority procedures.
We provide legal oversight of accounting activities, ensuring that:

• accounting records reflect legal reality,

• tax filings are consistent with contracts and business operations,

• risks are identified before they trigger NAV action.

We work closely with accounting partners and review processes from a legal compliance perspective, not just a bookkeeping one.

Representation Before the Hungarian Tax Authority (NAV)

When dealing with NAV, preparation and strategy are critical.
With former NAV experience, we represent foreign-owned companies in:

• tax audits,

• compliance inspections,

• data requests and authority procedures,

• prevention of tax number suspension or cancellation.

Our goal is always to resolve issues early and protect the company’s operational continuity.

• handling missed tax returns and arrears,

• restoring cancelled tax numbers,

• minimizing risks during liquidation or restructuring.

In critical situations, fast and strategic legal intervention can prevent long-term damage.
