Client Gate
The client gate was created by the legislator with the aim of enabling citizens to manage their official affairs electronically. The client gate portal basically serves to maintain internet contact between individuals and offices, using a username and password assigned exclusively to the individual. With the help of the client gate portal, the magyarorszag.hu website allows you to access the electronic administration of numerous ( 16 topic groups ) government services.
With client gate portal registration, office matters can be handled much more easily and quickly, both as an individual and in connection with a sole entrepreneurship. Here, for example, the following can be initiated: starting and suspending an individual business, but matters related to real estate title deeds, moral certificates or family support can also be handled.
Creating a client gate is free.

For security reasons, the password entered during registration can be used for a maximum of 2 years.

An individual entrepreneur must have a client portal right from the start, as the law requires data services during its operation that cannot be performed without a client portal (e.g. real-time submission of issued invoices to NAV)
Company Gate
The Cégkapu / Company Gate service was launched at the end of 2017, and its use by business organizations is mandatory from January 1, 2018. Like all electronic gates, Company Gate also primarily serves the purpose of developing electronic communication and administration for businesses.
Without client gate access, there is no company gate access! Therefore, Company Gate does not have a separate username or password, but the person acting on behalf of the business organization can access the company portal's storage through the identification of their own personal client gatekeeper.
More than 20 types of businesses and other organizations are required to use Company Gate, including business companies ( Bt., Kft. , Rt. ), associations, foundations, cooperatives, and individual companies.
From the point of view of the affected circle, an important rule is that the registration and notification obligation of the company gate does not apply to sole entrepreneurs, they can participate in the electronic administration by using the Client Gate, i.e. the personal storage space.
The Company Gate plays essentially the same role in the life of business organizations as the Client Gate does in the case of natural individual persons.
The Client Gate and the Company Gate are not suitable for sending documents to each other either, essentially, they can only accept e-mail sent to and from the Company Gate.
The most important difference is that there can be more than one Company Gate registration, while as an individual we can only have one Client Gate.
