For foreign companies conducting business activities in Hungary, it is not always necessary to establish a local company or branch office.
Through VAT registration, it is possible to obtain a Hungarian tax number and fulfill only the obligations related to value-added tax (VAT).

It is important to emphasize that an individual assessment is required in each case to determine whether VAT registration is the appropriate solution for the company, and whether establishing a permanent presence in Hungary can lawfully be avoided.

The MGI-BPO tax advisory team helps you navigate the Hungarian tax regulations and supports you in choosing the most advantageous solution.
✅ Rely on our experienced experts to ensure your business is in safe hands!

If you require VAT registration in another European country, we can provide assistance through the MGI Worldwide international network, covering all of Europe.

When Is VAT Registration the Right Choice?

VAT registration may be the ideal solution, for example, in the following cases:

• Sale of goods in Hungary,

• Provision of services to Hungarian customers,

• Import or export activities involving Hungary,

• Sales at events or exhibitions held in Hungary.

Our tax experts provide personalized advice to evaluate whether VAT registration is necessary for your specific activities.
