E.C.
Egyéni cég — sole proprietorship company
A registered company founded by a single natural person — not the same as a sole trader (egyéni vállalkozó).
Who answers for the company's debts?
The member's liability can be limited or unlimited, as the deed of foundation provides. With limited liability the law prescribes a supplementary payment obligation.
What capital does founding take?
No uniform statutory minimum; the deed of foundation sets the registered capital.
Who typically chooses it?
A one-person business that wants a company form instead of the sole-trader status. Few such companies exist.
How does it show in company data?
The name ends in "E.C." or "Egyéni Cég", with its own registration number.
