Long-Term Investment (TBSZ) Account Structure

TBSZ Account Structure Chart

Account Information

A long-term investment (TBSZ) account provides preferential tax treatment for profit/gains on investments held three to five years.

TBSZ accounts must always be linked with an Individual account, and you may have one TBSZ account per collection year, up to a maximum of five TBSZ accounts. A collection year is the year in which you open and fund your TBSZ account.

Your TBSZ account can only be funded during the collection year, and the minimum funding amount for a TBSZ account is HUF 25,000. Withdrawals can be made at any time, but the preferential tax treatment is lost if you withdraw before the end of year three and reduced if you withdraw before the end of year five.

Open a TBSZ Account

You must be a Hungarian tax resident to open a TBSZ account. The TBSZ account can be requested as part of the account application process or from the User (“Head/Shoulders” icon) > Settings > Open an Additional Account > Individual Brokerage Accounts > TBSZ YYYY menu in Client Portal.
