Important changes planned by the Hungarian Tax Authority

Ever since the launch of the Online Invoice System, the Hungarian Tax Authority has been implementing both minor and major changes to the platform from time to time. Most recently, a change affecting a large number of businesses was announced by the Tax Authority in January, which was originally planned to go live on 15 May. However, according to the most recent news from the Hungarian Tax Authority, the go-live of the change has been postponed until 18 September. This means that companies that have failed to prepare for the changes involving corrective and cancellation invoices have nearly four more months to get ready

The new form of VAT filing – eVAT M2M XML

The eVAT M2M system will become an increasingly common solution for VAT filing processes in the future. Although the eVAT M2M system offers many advantages for taxpayers and tax authorities, its implementation also poses challenges for both parties and expert support may be needed. If properly prepared and managed, eVAT communication will enable companies to meet their tax obligations more efficiently and easily. The Hungarian Tax Authority plans to start the test run in autumn 2023 and to go live in the first half of 2024.

Electronic invoicing: new rules and requirements from 2024

The digital age and the rapid expansion of e-commerce have brought about changes in taxation and invoicing as well. In December 2022, the European Commission proposed amendments to the VAT Directive as part of the \"VAT in the Digital Age\" initiative. Changes include significant amendments to invoicing rules, some of which could enter into force in 2024. Later on, e-invoicing would become mandatory for all businesses for transactions within the EU.

Hungarian Tax Authority's VAT return offers postponed

Instead of the originally planned target date of 12 November, the offering of Hungarian Tax Authority\'s VAT return drafts is to be postponed until the end of the state of emergency, i.e. until 1 January 2022 for certain. It seems that more time is necessary for the finalization of developments and the launch of the system after all.
