In the framework of the scheme, representation costs will be tax deductible up to 1pc of turnover but at most HUF 100 million, while restaurants’ tourism development contribution will be halved to 2%.
Restaurants will be eligible to pay a preferential tax rate on service charges distributed among staff over the minimum wage.
