The case for a multi-vendor marketplace in Székesfehérvár
Székesfehérvár is a city with county rights in central transdanubia, hungary, with a population of roughly 95,000, and one of the markets in Hungary where we build multi-vendor marketplaces.
Electronics and manufacturing hub west of Budapest — a business base that increasingly wants to sell online rather than through calls, messages and spreadsheets.
Hungary has SMEs make up 99% of all businesses in the European Union (European Commission). Hungary has a lively online market with strong use of pickup lockers such as Foxpost. Real-time NAV invoice reporting must be built into order processing.
Shoppers and trade buyers in Székesfehérvár already compare options on their phones; a multi-vendor marketplace that loads fast, shows accurate stock and accepts Visa and Mastercard turns that research into orders.

Rules Székesfehérvár sellers must respect online
On tax: Hungarian VAT (ÁFA) is 27% standard, one of the highest in the EU, with 18% and 5% reduced rates; real-time invoice reporting to NAV is required.
On privacy we design around the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the ePrivacy rules on cookies and marketing consent, enforced by NAIH; on consumer rights the store reflects the EU Consumer Rights Directive (14-day withdrawal right), the Digital Services Act and, from June 2025, the European Accessibility Act for online shops and Government Decree 45/2014 on consumer contracts.
We build the technical controls — tax-inclusive pricing, compliant invoices, consent banners, terms and return pages, data-access roles and audit logs. We are not a law firm, so final legal and tax positions should be confirmed with your own adviser in Hungary.
