Hungary will completely and permanently exempt mothers raising two children from income tax, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán announced. He also introduced a proposal for women with one child: they will be exempt from income tax until the age of 30. This groundbreaking decision is part of a newly announced economic policy program aimed at boosting Hungary’s population.

The policy has already sparked discussions online, particularly on the platform X.
“Hungary has just introduced the biggest tax cut in Europe and the entire Western world. Mothers with one child are exempt from income tax until they turn 30, while women with two or more children will never have to pay income tax again,” reads one of the posts on X.
Tax breaks are not the only measure being introduced. The Hungarian Prime Minister also announced that, starting in April, a cap of 5% will be placed on mortgage interest rates.
This move aims to strengthen Hungary’s economy, which has been struggling with a crisis fueled by inflation. At the beginning of 2025, prices began to rise again, causing significant public dissatisfaction.
