E-Cash Registers, Receipt Storage, and Data Correction in Hungary

Hungary now allows taxpayers in specific sectors—such as certain retail trades, catering, accommodation, and pharmacies—to opt for electronic cash registers (e-cash registers) instead of traditional fiscal devices. E-receipts and e-invoices from these systems will only be valid for tax purposes if they comply with strict identification, content, and data transfer rules under Decree 8/2025, with new retention provisions allowing secure AEE storage until 2033 in lieu of separate receipt archiving.
