The amount of the fine for small and medium-sized enterprises can range from HUF 15,000 to HUF 500,000, and for large companies with an annual net turnover of over HUF 100 million, from HUF 15,000 to 5% of the company's annual net turnover, up to a maximum of HUF 500 million.

21.4. Warranty for defects

21.4.1. In which cases can you exercise your right to Warranty for defects?

In the event of a defective performance by the Seller, you may assert a claim for a Warranty for defects against the Seller in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Civil Code and, in the case of consumer contracts, in accordance with the relevant provisions of Government Decree 373/2021 (30.6.21.).

21.4.2. What rights do you have under a warranty for defects claim?

You have the following rights to claim under a warranty for defects:

You may request repair or replacement, unless the option chosen by you is impossible or would impose a disproportionate additional cost on the Seller. If you did not or could not ask for repair or replacement, you may request a proportionate reduction in the price or you may have the defect repaired or replaced at the Seller's expense or, in the last resort, withdraw from the contract.

You may transfer your chosen Warranty for defects to another, but you will bear the cost of the transfer, unless it was justified or justified by the Seller.

In the case of a consumer contract, it must be presumed, unless the contrary is proved, that the defect in the goods and the goods incorporating digital components, discovered within one year of the date of performance, existed at the time of performance, except where this presumption is incompatible with the nature of the goods or the nature of the defect.

In the case of second-hand goods, warranty and Statutory warrante rights are different from the general rules. Second-hand goods may also be defective, but account must be taken of the circumstances which led the purchaser to expect certain defects to occur. In the case of second-hand goods, some defects are more likely to occur with use and may become more frequent with time, so it cannot be assumed that second-hand goods are of the same quality as newly purchased goods. On this basis, the purchaser can only assert his warranty rights in the event of defects/defects which occur independently of the defects resulting from use. If the second-hand goods have a defect of some kind and the consumer has been informed of this, the Seller shall not be liable for the known defect.

The seller may refuse to bring the goods into conformity with the contract if repair or replacement is impossible or would result in disproportionate additional costs for the business, taking into account all the circumstances, including the value of the service in its unobjectionable state and the seriousness of the lack of conformity.

The consumer shall also be entitled to claim a proportionate reduction of the consideration or termination of the sales contract, in proportion to the seriousness of the lack of conformity, if

  • the seller has not carried out the repair or replacement, or has carried it out but has failed to comply, in whole or in part, with the following conditions:
    • The Seller must ensure the return of the replaced goods at his own expense
    • If the repair or replacement requires the removal of goods which were installed in accordance with the nature and purpose of the goods before the defect became apparent, the obligation to repair or replace includes the removal of the non-conforming goods and the installation of the goods supplied as a replacement or repaired goods or the bearing of the costs of removal or installation
  • refused to bring the goods into conformity with the contract
  • there has been a repeated failure of performance despite the Seller's attempts to bring the goods into conformity with the contract
  • the defect is of such a serious nature as to justify immediate price reduction or immediate termination of the contract of sale; or
  • the seller has not undertaken to bring the goods into conformity with the contract, or it is clear from the circumstances that the seller will not bring the goods into conformity within a reasonable time or without significant detriment to the consumer

If the consumer wishes to terminate the sales contract on the ground of lack of conformity, the burden of proving that the lack of conformity is insignificant shall be on the seller.

The consumer is entitled to retain the remaining part of the purchase price, in whole or in part, in proportion to the seriousness of the lack of conformity, until the seller has fulfilled his obligations regarding the conformity of the performance and the lack of conformity.

21.4.3. General rules applicable

  • The Seller must ensure the return of the replaced goods at his own expense
  • If the repair or replacement requires the removal of goods which were put into service in accordance with the nature and purpose of the goods before the defect became apparent, the obligation to repair or replace includes the removal of the non-conforming goods and the putting into service of the goods supplied as a replacement or repaired goods or the bearing of the costs of removal or putting into service

The reasonable time limit for the repair or replacement of the goods shall be calculated from the date on which the consumer has notified the defect to the Seller.

The consumer must place the goods at the disposal of the seller in order for the repair or replacement to be carried out.

The reduction of the consideration shall be proportionate if it is equal to the difference between the value of the goods to which the consumer is entitled in the case of performance of the contract and the value of the goods actually received by the consumer.

The consumer's right of withdrawal from the contract of sale may be exercised by means of a declaration addressed to the seller expressing the decision to withdraw.

Where the lack of conformity affects only a specified part of the goods supplied under the sales contract and the conditions for exercising the right to terminate the contract are fulfilled in respect of those goods, the consumer may terminate the sales contract only in respect of the defective goods, but may also terminate it in respect of any other goods acquired together with them if the consumer cannot reasonably be expected to keep only the goods which are in conformity with the contract.

If the consumer terminates the sales contract in its entirety or, in accordance with paragraph 2, in respect of some of the goods supplied under the sales contract, he

  • the consumer must return the goods concerned to the seller at the seller's expense; and
  • the seller must reimburse the consumer for the price paid for the goods concerned as soon as he has received the goods or the certificate of return of the goods.

21.4.4. What is the time limit for making a warranty for defects claim?

You are obliged to report the defect as soon as it is discovered, but within 2 months at the latest. You may not claim for any defects beyond the 2 year limitation period from the date of performance of the contract.

The period of limitation does not include the time taken to repair the goods during which the customer was unable to use them as intended.

If a part of the goods is replaced or repaired, the limitation period for the warranty for defects shall start to run again for the part concerned. This rule also applies if the repair results in a new defect.

If the subject matter of the contract between the Consumer and the Seller is second-hand goods, the parties may agree on a shorter limitation period, but no shorter than 1 year may be agreed.

21.4.5. Against whom can I enforce a warranty claim?

You can assert a warranty claim against the Seller.

21.4.6. What are the other conditions for exercising your rights under the Warranty for defects?

No conditions other than the notification of the defect are required to enforce your right to a claim for a replacement within 1 year of performance, provided that you prove that the goods or services were provided by the Seller. However, after 1 year from the date of performance, you must prove that the defect existed at the time of performance.

21.5. Manufacturer's warranty

21.5.1. In which cases can you exercise your right to manufacturer's warranty?

In the event of a defect in movable goods, you can choose to claim either a Warranty for defects or a manufacturer's warranty.

21.5.2. What are your rights under a manufacturer's warranty claim?

As a manufacturer's warranty claim, you can only request the repair or replacement of the defective goods.

21.5.3. In which cases are the goods defective?

The goods are defective if they do not meet the quality requirements in force at the time of their placing on the market or if they do not have the characteristics described by the manufacturer.

21.5.4. What is the time limit for making a manufacturer's warranty claim?

You have 2 years from the date on which the goods were placed on the market by the manufacturer to make a manufacturer's warranty claim. After this period, you lose this right.

21.5.5. Against whom and under what other conditions can you enforce your manufacturer's warranty claim?

You can only exercise your manufacturer's warranty claim against the manufacturer/distributor of the movable item. You must prove that the goods are defective in order to make a manufacturer's warranty claim.

21.5.6. In which cases is the manufacturer/distributor exempted from its manufacturer's warranty obligations?

The manufacturer/distributor is only exempted from its manufacturer's warranty obligation if it can prove that:

  • the defect was not detectable according to the state of science and technology at the time of placing on the market
  • The defect in the goods results from the application of a legal or regulatory provision
  • The goods were not manufactured or put into circulation in the course of his business

The manufacturer/distributor must prove 1 ground for exemption.

Please note that you cannot claim both a Warranty for defects and a manufacturer's warranty for the same defect at the same time. However, if you are successful in enforcing a manufacturer's warranty claim, you can enforce your warranty claim against the manufacturer for the replaced goods/repaired part.

21.6. Statutory warrante

21.6.1. In which cases can you exercise your Statutory warrante rights?

In the event of defective performance, the Seller is obliged to provide a Statutory warrante for the sale of new consumer durables listed in Annex 1 to the Decree and their accessories and components within the scope specified therein, pursuant to Government Decree 151/2003 (IX. 22.) on the mandatory warrante for consumer durables.

The legislation provides for the Statutory warrantee for consumer durables such as technical goods, machines, tools, the purchase price of which exceeds HUF 10,000.

The Seller may voluntarily provide a Statutory warrantee to a buyer who is a consumer, for which he must provide a warranty declaration.

The Statutory warrantee must be made available to the consumer on a durable medium no later than the time of delivery of the goods.

The Statutory warrantee must contain the following information:

  • a clear statement that the consumer is entitled to exercise his statutory rights under the Warranty for defects free of charge in the event of defective performance of the goods and that these rights are not affected by the Statutory warrante;
  • the name and address of the person liable for the Statutory warrante;
  • the procedure to be followed by the consumer to enforce the Statutory warrante;
  • the identification of the goods to which the Statutory warrante applies, and
  • the conditions of the Statutory warrante.

The Statutory warrantee must also be provided to the consumer in Hungarian.

21.6.2. What are your rights under the Statutory warrante and within what time limits?

Under a Statutory warrante, the buyer may request repair or replacement, ask for a price reduction in cases provided for by law and, as a last resort, withdraw from the contract if the person obliged to provide the guarantee has not undertaken to repair or replace the goods within the time limit, cannot do so without prejudice to the legitimate interests of the beneficiary, or if the beneficiary's interest in the repair or replacement has ceased.

The consumer may also, at his choice, submit his claim for repair directly to the repair service indicated by the trader on the guarantee voucher, at the trader's head office, at any of his premises, branches or subsidiaries.

You may exercise your warranty claim for the duration of the warranty period, as defined in Government Decree 151/2003 (IX.22.), as follows:

  • one year for a sale price of HUF 10 000 but not exceeding HUF 100 000
  • two years for a sale price exceeding HUF 100 000 but not exceeding HUF 250 000
  • three years for sales above HUF 250 000

Please note that failure to meet these deadlines will result in forfeiture of rights.

In the case of repair of the consumer goods, the Statutory warrante period is extended from the date of delivery for repair by the time during which the consumer could not use the goods as intended because of the defect.

The Statutory warrante period shall start from the date of delivery of the consumer goods to the consumer or, if the installation is carried out by the Seller or his agent, from the date of installation.

If the consumer puts the consumer goods into service more than six months after delivery, the starting date of the Statutory warrante period is the date of delivery of the consumer goods.

21.6.3. Procedural provisions concerning the Statutory warrante

The Seller shall endeavour to carry out the repair requested under the Statutory warrante within 15 days. The 15-day time limit starts on the day of receipt of the consumer goods.

If the repair or replacement takes longer than 15 days, the Seller must inform the Buyer of the expected duration of the repair or replacement.

Consumer goods which are fixed, or which weigh more than 10 kg, or which cannot be transported as hand luggage on public transport, with the exception of vehicles, must be repaired at the place of use. If repair cannot be carried out at the place of use, dismantling, installation, removal and return shall be carried out by the Seller or, in the case of a repair request made directly to the repairer, by the repairer.

If, during the first repair of the consumer goods during the specified guarantee period, the Seller establishes that the goods cannot be repaired, the undertaking shall replace the goods within eight days, unless the consumer has provided otherwise. If the consumer goods cannot be replaced, the seller must reimburse the consumer within eight days for the purchase price indicated on the proof of payment of the price of the consumer goods presented by the consumer, i.e. on the invoice or receipt issued under the VAT Act.

By accepting the General Terms and Conditions document, the purchaser agrees that the information may be provided to the purchaser by electronic means.

In the event that the Seller is unable to correct the consumer goods within 30 days

  • if the purchaser has given his consent, the repair may be carried out at a later date, or
  • if the buyer has not consented or made a declaration to the subsequent repair, the consumer goods must be replaced within 8 days after the expiry of the 30-day time limit without result, or
  • if the Buyer does not agree to the subsequent repair or has not made a declaration to that effect, but the replacement of the goods is not possible, the Seller shall reimburse the Buyer within eight days the purchase price indicated on the invoice or receipt issued under the VAT Act, which is presented by the Buyer as proof of payment of the price of the goods.

In the event that the consumer goods are defective after the 3rd repair, the buyer shall be entitled, unless the buyer has provided otherwise

  • to apply to the Seller for repair, or
  • to request the Seller to reduce the purchase price proportionately pursuant to Section 6:159 (2) b) of Act V of 2013 on the Civil Code, or
  • to have the consumer goods repaired or otherwise remedied at the Seller's expense pursuant to Section 6:159 (2) b) of Act V of 2013 on the Civil Code, or
  • if the Buyer does not exercise these rights or has not declared this, the consumer goods must be replaced within 8 days, or, if this is not possible, the Seller shall reimburse the Buyer within 8 days the purchase price indicated on the proof of payment of the purchase price of the consumer goods presented by the Buyer - on the invoice or receipt issued under the VAT Act.

21.6.4. What is the relationship between the Statutory warrante and other warranty rights?

The difference between warranty rights and guarantee is that in the case of a guarantee, the burden of proof is lower for the Consumer.

The Seller's voluntary warranty undertaking shall not contain terms and conditions more disadvantageous to the Consumer than those provided for by the rules of the mandatory warranty within the duration of the mandatory warranty. After the expiry of this period, the terms of the voluntary statutory warrantee may be freely determined, but the statutory warrantee may not adversely affect the Consumer's statutory rights (based on an implied warranty).

21.6.5. Requirement for replacement within three working days:

You have the right to exchange the goods within 3 working days in the case of purchases made in a webshop.You may claim a replacement within 3 working days for consumer durables subject to Government Decree 151/2003 (22.IX.2003), which states that if you claim a replacement within 3 working days, the Seller must interpret the goods as having been defective at the time of sale and must replace them without further ado.

21.6.6. When is the Seller released from his Statutory warrante obligation?

The Seller is released from his Statutory warrante obligation if he proves that the cause of the defect arose after performance.

Please note that the provisions under "Procedural provisions on Statutory warrante" do not apply to the following consumer goods: electric bicycles, electric scooters, quad bikes, motorcycles, mopeds, passenger cars, motor homes, caravans, motor caravans, trailers, motorised watercraft. Notwithstanding the above, the Seller shall endeavour to meet the repair request within 15 days for these consumer goods. If the repair or replacement takes longer than 15 days, the Seller must inform the Buyer of the expected time for the repair or replacement.

Please note that you cannot make a warranty claim and a guarantee claim or a manufacturer's warranty claim and a guarantee claim for the same defect at the same time. Your rights under the Statutory warrante are independent of any warranty rights.

22. Warranty for defects, manufacturer's warranty, statutory warrantee information for non-consumer contracts

22.1. Warranty for defects

A non-consumer purchaser may make the following claims under a Warranty for defects:

  • It may request repair or replacement, unless the remedy chosen by the nonconsumer buyer is impracticable or would involve disproportionate additional costs for the Seller compared to other remedies.
  • If the repair or replacement is not requested or could not have been requested, the consumer may request a proportionate reduction of the price or have the defect repaired or replaced at the seller's expense or, as a last resort, withdraw from the contract.

He may switch from one warranty for defects to another, but the cost of the switch shall be borne by the buyer who is not a consumer, unless it was justified or the Seller gave a reason for it.

For purchasers who are not consumers, the period of validity of the right to claim under a Warranty for defects shall be 1 year from the date of performance.

For second-hand goods, the warranty and Statutory warrante rights are different from the general rules. Second-hand goods may also be defective, but the circumstances under which the purchaser could have expected certain defects to occur must be taken into account. In the case of second-hand goods, some defects are more likely to occur with use and may become more frequent with time, so it cannot be assumed that second-hand goods are of the same quality as newly purchased goods. On this basis, the purchaser can only assert his warranty rights in the event of defects/defects which occur independently of the defects resulting from use. If the second-hand goods have a defect of some kind and the consumer has been informed of this, the Seller shall not be liable for the known defect.

22.2. Manufacturer's warranty and Statutory warrante

Purchasers who are not consumers are not covered by any Statutory warranty or manufacturer's warranty.

In the case where the Seller voluntarily provides a Statutory warrante for a particular good, it shall be stated on the purchase of the good.

If the manufacturer of a good provides a Statutory warrante that also covers purchasers who are not consumers, the warranty may be enforced directly against the manufacturer.
