Hungary is making e-invoicing mandatory for water supplies

  • Water Sector Mandate: From 1 January 2026, Hungarian water utility providers must issue only electronic invoices to non‑residential users (businesses). Residential users remain exempt.
  • Energy Sector Precedent: Since 1 July 2025, electricity and gas suppliers have already been required to issue e‑invoices exclusively to businesses, setting the stage for broader sectoral adoption.
  • Legal Basis: The requirement is established in Government Decree 159/2025, Section 3, signaling Hungary’s phased expansion of mandatory e‑invoicing across utilities.
