Tax Newsletter 2013/8- Hungarian- Swiss tax treaty

What to know about new Hungarian- Swiss double tax treaty, presents the current tax newsletter of Mazars in Hungary.

At the beginning of the year, János Lázár expressed his claim that the Swiss banks should make all information available which are suitable for identifying Hungary-related bank accounts with the purpose of involving  these amounts in Hungarian taxable incomes. On 12 September the new Hungarian-Swiss Treaty was born, which already contains the regulations for making information available.

The present newsletter of Mazars Hungary investigates among others – according to the wording of the Treaty published on the Parliament’s website – how the government’s preliminary conception of the  information exchange was realized.
