The association of municipalities of the Balaton region had previously turned to the Ministry of Economic Affairs to amend the law to allow retail shops to open on Sundays during the peak season of Hungary’s most popular summer holiday destination.
Meanwhile, official figures of retail sales based on the recently introduced electronic tills connected to the Hungarian Tax Authority (NAV) remain unknown, and consequently the real impact of the Sunday closures are unknown as well.
