REIT advantages for small and large investors

The concept of a regulated real estate investment trust (REIT) did not deliver the hopes associated whit it in Hungary until in 2017 the legislator eased the main terms and conditions that seemed too rigorous in the Hungarian market. As a result, not only more favourable taxation terms and conditions but also simpler rules of foundation and operation contribute to the good performance of real estate market actors and portfolios operated in the form of REIT, making this type of operation more attractive to the well-capitalised actors of the real estate market. In addition, given the fact that all REIT-s must be floated on the stock exchange, private and small investors will also find it easier to have access to the real estate market through the shares of such companies.

Online invoice data reporting – data content

Data reporting must be carried out automatically from the invoicing software, without any human intervention. In case of an operational failure, the data content of missed invoices must be forwarded electronically to the state tax and customs authority by the taxable person within 24 hours of elimination of such operational failure.

New Laws on the Rules of Taxation

The basic aim of the renewal of the rules of tax administration is for the tax authority to provide a client-focused service and to help taxpayers in the fulfilment of their tax obligations. Instead of a uniform code-like regulation, from 2018 multiple acts will specify the rights and obligations taxpayers and tax authorities have in specific tax matters.
