On November 18, 2016 the Hungarian Ministry for National Economy issued a press release announcing that at a press conference organized on the sidelines of the Regional Digital Conference in Budapest, the Hungarian Minister for National Economy announced that Hungary’s current corporate income tax rates of 10% and 19% are set to be reduced to a flat rate of 9% as of next year.
According to the press release the proposal is to be approved by employer and employee organizations this week, after which the Ministry could submit a bill to parliament. This would enable amendments to enter into force as of January 1, 2017.
Currently the Hungarian corporate income tax rate is 10% up to a tax base of HUF 500 million (approximately 1.6 million Euro) and 19% on the excess.
