What it is
In Hungary, market surveillance of non-food products is carried out by the Market Surveillance function within the Metrological and Technical Supervisory Department of the Government Office of the Capital City Budapest — the role that took over when the former Hungarian Trade Licensing Office was dissolved.
Why it matters for compliance
For products sold in Hungary, this is the authority that can inspect products, request technical documentation and act against non-compliant or unsafe goods. It is the Hungarian enforcement contact a consumer-product brand should know; standards sit with MSZT.
How to use it
- Keep your technical file and DoC ready for a documentation request.
- Use the authority’s guidance for Hungarian market-surveillance expectations.
- Pair it with MSZT for the standards behind conformity.
Good to know
Hungary reorganised its consumer-protection structure in recent years, moving market-surveillance tasks to the government offices — so the institutional name differs from older guidance.
