From 1st July 2018 Real-time Invoice Reporting to the Hungarian Tax Authority must be fulfilled by sending invoice data in XML file format. From 1st of January 2021, NAV Real-time Online Invoice reporting obligation should be accomplished with schema 3.0 XSD by taxpayers, while NAV provided a three-month grace period until 1st of April, 2021 to taxpayers.

From 1st April 2021, the Hungarian Tax Authority accept only the XML files reported in 3.0 XSD schema format, without an error message. 

If you have already developed the XML file you would like to report to HU TA, you can validate it here*.

  1. In order to start XML validation, you have to upload an invoice data XML file, derived from your invoicing program.
  2. Please provide a valid e-mail address where you wish to receive the detailed  result of the validation.
  3. You will receive a response from our XML validator within a few minutes on this screen and via email, whether the file satisfies the XSD form expected by the tax authority. (Please find our Privacy statement here).

* Our XML validator checks the formal and structural compliance of the XML you have submitted, based on the XSD schemas defined by NAV (Hungarian Tax Authority),it does not check the content and tax aspects of the submitted XML file.
