Hungary Company & Beneficial Ownership Directory
Hungary company register data is public on the Cégnyilvántartás (Company Register), searchable through the e-cegjegyzek portal. Beneficial ownership sits in a separate system, the Központi Nyilvántartó Rendszer (Central Registry System) for tényleges tulajdonos (beneficial owners), supervised by the tax authority NAV, generally applying a 25% shares-or-voting-rights threshold, though private limited companies with shares use a different rule that only triggers at 50% single ownership or a combined 75% direct-and-indirect stake. Following the EU's November 2022 Court of Justice ruling, Hungary removed general public access, limiting it to competent authorities, AML-obliged entities, the company itself, and third parties who can document a legitimate interest.
