A kormány döntött a milliárdosok vagyonadójáról, a KATA-ról és a sportolók adókönnyítéséről

Summary of the subtitles (main points)

The speaker outlines three major government tax policy changes:

1. A new billionaire wealth tax
2. A renewed/expanded KATA (simplified small-business taxation) scheme
3. Ending preferential tax treatment for professional athletes/footballers

---

1) Billionaires’ wealth tax (from 1 January 2027)

• A wealth tax is planned for individuals with assets over HUF 1 billion.
• The tax rate is 1% on asset value above HUF 1 billion.
• For those with wealth above HUF 100 billion, the rate increases dramatically to 155%.
• The tax base covers all assets, including:
  • real estate
  • investments
  • company shares
• Assets held abroad and placed via trusts/assigned to trustees are also included (the speaker claims it’s not worth trying to hide assets).
• Loans are deductible from the tax base.
• Valuation rules will be based primarily on fair market value (especially for real estate and company shares).
• The tax will be paid once per year via self-declaration.
• For the first filing round: based on the current year, until 31 August 2027.
• Only those whose wealth per capita reaches HUF 1 billion must file a tax return; the authority (NAV) will provide a calculator.
• The speaker rejects claims/rumors that the policy works differently and accuses newly made billionaires of lobbying against it through paid/hidden press efforts.

2) KATA tax scheme changes (expanded eligibility and social-security benefits)

The speaker says the government will make KATA widely available again, expecting 100,000+ new small entrepreneurs to benefit.

Key elements:

• Re-expansion of KATA eligibility to groups previously excluded, including:
  • part-time entrepreneurs
  • retirees
  • university students who are self-employed
• KATA can again be used for invoicing:
  • companies
  • other organizations (not only individuals)
• Social protection and pension: the speaker emphasizes KATA should include real social security protection and a future pension.
• To address a “serious flaw” of the earlier system, the government will increase the base used for calculating:
  • sick pay
  • maternity benefits
  • pensions for KATA taxpayers.

Tax amounts mentioned:

• Full-time KATA: HUF 100,000/month
• Temporary relief until 2028 for those billing exclusively to private individuals:
  • 2027: HUF 75,000/month
  • from 2028: HUF 100,000/month
• Part-time KATA: HUF 50,000/month

Invoicing companies/organizations:

• The entrepreneur pays a 15% tax on such income, which is said to be already included within the itemized KATA tax.
• The speaker claims the “additional” tax burden appears only if the company’s annual income exceeds HUF 8 million.
• The annual income threshold increases from HUF 18 million to HUF 22 million.

3) Ending preferential “exceptions” for professional athletes/footballers

• The speaker argues the government will eliminate unjustified tax exceptions.
• Example given: the “simplified media contribution” (echo) limit generally is HUF 60 million, but for professional athletes it was raised in recent years up to HUF 500 million.
• This exception is said to end in 2027.
• The speaker stresses equal rules: professional athletes will be treated like everyone else, with taxes capped under the HUF 60 million limit.

The overall framing emphasizes:

• a fairer system
• simpler rules
• reduced exceptions
• solidarity from the exceptionally wealthy

Closing messaging

• The speaker credits the Tisza Government’s knowledge and patriotism as guiding the decisions.
• The reforms are framed as part of rebuilding after “decades of destruction.”
• The segment ends with a reference to a memorial event for the martyrs of Arad and Hungarian homeland heroes.
