[okfn-hu] Hungarian company register?

Thu Mar 31 07:03:33 UTC 2011

aloa jonathan,
what is it exactly that you want to know about HUN comp.reg?

short info:
- it is manage by the special office of the Ministy for Justice
- the database contains basic info of all the HUN companies, together with
the actual, annual financial reports
- as a citizen you can dig in it *via *a highly not-user-friendly interface
http://www.e-cegjegyzek.hu/index.html
- basic comp.data on each of the registered company supposed to be free, but
due to the fact that the online site is highly intransparent, full of faults
and all in all, it requires endless patience to get the data you need by
yourself -- everybody turns to second-user firms commercializing tailored
info
- 'KIM céginformációs szolgálat': http://ceginformaciosszolgalat.kim.gov.hu/

- there is one company monopolizing the maintenance of the database, all
other interested client and re-user (citizen or company) is "invited" to buy
various access rights.
have to check the recent charges...

- k-monitor: as far as I know, they try to map the owner-network of the
different HUN companies... but lets doublecheck.
i am going to meet them just tomorrow

well, that's for first shot
if you specify your question, can give also more details :)

best,
petra
