In Hungary, social security covers free healthcare, pensions, and various allowances, such as sick leave, maternity leave, or unemployment. These essential services are paid for by social security contribution, a 18.5% tax on income from work.

Employers deduct this tax from the gross salaries of employees alongside personal income tax and forward them to the authorities, so employees always only get their net salaries. Those not working in regular employment pay this tax themselves.

For your Hungarian business, having a corporate Revolut account can offer various benefits, such as better exchange rates when receiving payments from international clients.

Revolut has recently opened its Hungarian branch office and started migrating users to Hungarian bank accounts, which enables even more features. Additionally, if your employees have Revolut accounts, now you can transfer their salaries directly there.

Mind you, your Hungarian company still must have a corporate bank account at a Hungarian bank.

Do you know where you are supposed to pay taxes?

If you travel a lot or have several homes around the world, the answer might not be that simple, even if most income is taxed where it is generated. Depending on your nationality and the types of income, several governments might be eligible to tax the same income.

Luckily enough, most governments agree that that would be unfair, so they enter into double taxation agreements to protect their subjects.

How does that work? Read the latest article in our blog.

The implementation of the EU Pay Transparency Directive in Hungary will likely be delayed due to the recent governmental transition – but businesses should still prepare.

The directive, originally scheduled to take effect across the EU by June 7, 2026, introduces several important obligations for employers, including:

• stricter gender pay gap reporting
• transparent salary ranges in recruitment
• clearer career progression and compensation frameworks
• revised approaches to salary confidentiality

While Hungary’s new legislation is expected to arrive later than planned, the direction is already clear. Companies that begin reviewing their HR and payroll practices now will be better positioned once the regulations enter into force.

For many businesses, this is also an opportunity to improve transparency, employee satisfaction, and long-term retention.

At Helpers Finance, we support international businesses in Hungary with payroll, HR compliance, and accounting solutions tailored to local regulations.

Stability, predictability, and transparency – these were among the key themes highlighted by Hungary’s new economy minister, István Kapitány, during his parliamentary committee hearing.

The minister emphasized that long-term economic growth and competitiveness require a stable regulatory environment, public dialogue before major legislative changes, and reduced administrative burdens for businesses. Innovation and startup development were also identified as strategic priorities for the coming years.

For foreign investors and international companies operating in Hungary, these signals may point toward a more predictable and business-friendly environment.

In our latest article, we examine:
• the new minister’s vision for Hungarian economy
• what greater regulatory predictability could mean for businesses
• the government’s priorities regarding innovation and investment

Could this mark the beginning of a more investor-friendly era in Hungary? And how quickly might these priorities translate into practical changes for businesses and foreign investors?

We will continue monitoring the latest developments and sharing updates on how the evolving political and economic landscape may impact doing business in Hungary.

Forced liquidation doesn’t happen overnight – it’s the final step of a long process triggered by non-compliance. You might have missed a monthly report or your Hungarian bank account has been blocked, reasons can vary. But here’s the key takeaway many business owners overlook: it can often be stopped.

The difference? Acting early – and having the right support, especailly if you run a company in a foreign country.

This is where professional help is invaluable.
✔️ Business support teams monitor official communication and flag risks before they become critical
✔️ Accountants ensure your reports are submitted correctly and on time
✔️ Legal experts help you navigate court procedures if things escalate

When your company receives notices, deadlines start ticking. Missing them can lead to tax number cancellation and eventually forced liquidation – but with the right support system, you can restore compliance and reverse the process.

Strong operational support isn’t just a “nice to have” – it’s what keeps your business safe, compliant, and running. Reach out to Helpers Finance to stay on the right track.

Ever wondered why the U.S. uses sales tax while Europe relies on VAT?

Understanding the difference between sales tax and VAT is essential for anyone doing business across the U.S. and the EU. While both are consumption-based taxes, they work very differently in practice.

In the U.S., sales tax is collected only at the final point of sale, which can lead to complications in the supply chain if sellers cannot prove that their buyers are not end users. Sales tax is supposed to be collected and remitted only at the final point of sale, but some studies estimate that up to 40% of the total sales tax revenue comes from taxes levied on B2B transactions.

In the EU, VAT is charged at every stage, but businesses can deduct the VAT they pay – making it economically neutral for B2B transactions.

For companies operating in Hungary, this means they will be charging VAT, tracking it on all invoices, and they will be able to deduct the VAT content of purchases from the VAT they would need to pay based on their sales. Modern accounting tools help, but compliance still requires attention.

If you choose to work with us, Helpers keeps you updated on these rules so you can stay compliant and focus on running your business.
