VAT in Hungary (ÁFA)

ÁFA is Hungary's value added tax on the sale of goods and services; its standard rate is 27 percent.

Updated:

Explanation

Under section 82 of the VAT Act (Act CXXVII of 2007) the standard rate is 27 percent of the taxable amount; goods and services listed in the Act's annexes carry a reduced rate of 18 or 5 percent.

Some transactions are exempt, and small businesses can choose the small-business exemption. Which rate applies to an item is always a question for your accountant.

How HelloTeam does it

In HelloTeam the VAT rate is your company's own default and can be changed per line; a 0 percent line asks for an exemption reason. Totals are rounded per line.
