- The Hungarian Tax Authority has published draft legislation to amend e-invoicing requirements, set to take effect on July 1, 2025, pending approval. The draft is currently open for taxpayer consultation and software development input, with the Tax Authority likely to proceed with the proposed changes.
- Key changes include reclassifying 21 “warning” messages in the Online Invoice System to “error” messages, enhancing data consistency and paving the way for the future implementation of the e-VAT system. Warnings indicate reporting acceptance with errors, while errors result in rejection of the invoice reporting.
- Additional amendments propose increasing penalties for non-compliance with the Online Invoice Reporting Obligation from HUF 500,000 to HUF 1 million, and introducing a data matching procedure that allows the Tax Authority to initiate a correction process if discrepancies are found between online reporting and VAT returns, requiring taxpayer corrections within 15 days.
