Important Notes
Bank Account Opening Deadline
Hungarian corporations must open a corporate bank account within 8 days of incorporation. However, the account opening may be delayed for up to 1–2 months. A penalty of 70 euros may be imposed if the account opening is significantly delayed.
- Bank account opening — procedures vary by bank, but generally require a visit. Some banks may allow companies with annual sales exceeding 3 million euros in their first year to open an account without a visit.
- EMI accounts — many banks now offer EMI (electronic banking) account opening without visiting the bank, but since transaction fees are higher than those of banks, we recommend using a bank account for large transactions. (You can first open an EMI account and then open a bank account later.)
- Korean corporations — if the shareholders are Korean corporations, the corporate documents must be apostilled and then translated into Hungarian with a notarized translation. Typically, only the business registration certificate is notarized, but additional documents may be required depending on local regulations.
- Document submission — once all documents are prepared, please send them to our Korean office. After verification by our Korean office, they will be forwarded to Hungary.
