Non resident tax obligations
Hi. I'm just looking for confirmation that I have the correct end of the stick, so to speak!
I'm hopefully soon to be a dual citizen of Hungary and UK!
I am full time resident in the UK (from birth) and all my income is UK sourced. My understanding is that as a non-resident (no property owned there and not present in Hungary for more than 183 days in any year) Hungarian citizen, I will not be required to pay any tax in Hungary. Is my understanding correct?
Also, will I have to submit a (zero) tax return in Hungary? I don't see any reason why I should need to obtain (or be given) a tax ID number even, in which case I assume that a tax return can't in fact be made?
TIA!

Re: Non resident tax obligations
If you are not resident in Hungary and have no Hungarian income then the tax authorities have no interest. You won't be given a tax number, - you have to ask for one. You will need a tax number if you have a Hungarian income (earned or otherwise) or you want to buy property here, otherwise nothing to do.
