Only Budapest is affected by the regulation of short-term apartment rentals – emphasizes the Hungarian Tourism Agency in its statement sent to MTI on Tuesday.

“The comprehensive regulation of short-term housing rentals, including the two-year moratorium on registration and the adjustment and increase of the itemized flat tax to income, only affects Budapest, it will not affect rural Hungary, neither now nor in the future”

– László Könnyid, CEO of MTÜ, summarized the territorial scope of the package of measures in the announcement.
