Hungarian VAT invoice requirements
Hungarian VAT rules on the format and information to be provided on invoices broadly conform with the obligations of the EU VAT Directive and its VAT invoice requirements.
Date of issuance and storage of Hungarian invoices
Hungarian VAT invoices must be issued at the latest fifteen days after the taxable supply. Invoices must be stored for eight years. Hungary, like all EU member states, now permits the use of electronic invoices under certain conditions.
