Internet VAT Rate Cut Would Reduce Budget Revenue HUF 12-13BN
A reduction in the VAT rate on internet service from 27% to 18% will reduce budget revenue by an annual 12-13 billion forints (EUR 38-42m), business daily Világgazdaság said, quoting calculations by the economy ministry. The government recently announced plans to cut the VAT rate on internet service to 18% following a national consultation.

Hungary’s biggest internet service providers estimate the VAT reduction will save consumers 300-700 forints a month on their bills, the paper said.
