A VAT registration becomes mandatory when the business starts its operational activities in Hungary. No threshold applies for the annual turnover of taxable supplies in Hungary.
A non-established business that registers for VAT in Hungary must appoint a resident tax representative.
If a non-established business exclusively supplies services that are subject to the reverse- charge mechanism to business customers in Hungary, it does not need to register for VAT as VAT is ‘self-accounted’ for by the counterparty.
