# Hungary

Company data from the Hungary business register, through the Topograph API.

## Overview

Topograph reads e-Cégjegyzék (Hungarian Court Company Register), NAV Egyéni Vállalkozói Nyilvántartás (Sole Traders Registry), NAV Group VAT Registry, Cégportál (Hungarian Company Information Portal) and e-beszámoló (Electronic Financial Statements Portal) and returns the company profile, legal representatives, other key persons, shareholders and establishments of Hungary companies through one API.

## Coverage

What comes back for each datapoint and document, as on the coverage matrix.

Requests run in prefill mode (fast) or verification mode (the authoritative register answer).

| Datapoint | Returned |
| --- | --- |
| Company profile | Yes |
| Legal representatives | Yes |
| Other key persons | Yes |
| Shareholders | Yes |
| Establishments | Yes |

| Document | Returned |
| --- | --- |
| Register extract | Yes |
| Articles of association | No |
| Financials | Yes |
| UBO extract | No |

### Documents, as the register names them

- Cégkivonat
- EVNY kivonat
- Éves beszámoló

### Speed

A company profile typically comes back from the register in 3 s in prefill mode and 20 s in verification mode. These are typical observations, not a service-level commitment: set your timeouts well above them.
