13.6. By accepting the General Terms and Conditions, the Guest acknowledges and accepts that the Service Provider issues electronic invoices for fees payable and amounts paid by guests to the Service Provider under any title and sends them by email.
When issuing invoices for amounts paid/payable, the Service Provider uses the data provided during online booking, or in the case of bookings made by email, fax, or telephone, the data provided by the person making the booking.
The data provided here (name, address, and tax number if necessary) will appear in the “Buyer” section of the invoice. Within 1 day of the booking being made, the Guest may request modification of the data provided; however, modification is not possible thereafter.
The Service Provider issues the final invoice based on the data provided at the time of booking.
Although the Guest has the option to pay in a currency different from the booking currency, we issue the invoice in the currency of payment.
Only one invoice can be issued per booking; bookings cannot be split into multiple parts for billing purposes. If you would like separate invoices issued in the name of two or more guests (or companies), a separate booking must be recorded/made for each. However, subsequent modifications to bookings (e.g., purchase of additional services) are invoiced separately.
If you notice any error in the invoice, the Guest or the person/company listed as the buyer on the invoice should send an email to the following address to resolve the issue:
Hotel Medos, Medúza Kft. 1061 Budapest, Jókai tér 9.
Our goal is to handle the reported issue and respond to you within 15 days of notification.
The original electronic invoice issued by the Service Provider is a PDF file attached to the email sent to the person/company indicated in the booking. In accordance with the relevant Hungarian legislation (currently Act XXXV of 2001 on Electronic Signatures, Act C of 2000 on Accounting, and PM Decree 46/2007), companies are entitled to issue their invoices in electronic form.
An electronic invoice is a specially formatted file that contains the image of the traditional invoice issued by the Service Provider in the form of a PDF document (which meets the requirements of the Hungarian invoice format prescribed by Act CXXVII of 2007 on VAT), as well as (within the PDF file) its electronic signature and timestamp in accordance with the provisions of the Hungarian legislation referenced above.
The signature is made on behalf of the Service Provider and is accompanied by a “qualified certificate” issued by a qualified certification authority contracted for this purpose. The electronic invoice contains all necessary information to verify the validity of the certificate attached to the invoice signature and timestamp.
If the invoice is used as accounting evidence, the recipient of the invoice is obliged to store the electronic invoice in electronic form (similar to printed invoices).
To view and verify the origin and authenticity of the electronic invoice, Adobe Reader version 8 or later must be installed on the computer.
