**Jogtár** is Wolters Kluwer Hungary's flagship legal database. The brand has existed since 1993; the current platform is **Új Jogtár** (uj.jogtar.hu). Wolters Kluwer markets it as Hungary's market-leading legal database, and there's no like-for-like Hungarian rival of comparable scale.

## Tips

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Use időállapot when the date matters">
    Name the effective date when you need the law as it stood; Jogtár's időállapotok will surface the right text.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Cite by paragraph">
    *"Ptk. 6:142. §"* / *"Btk. 159. §"*: Hungarian lawyers cite by paragraph, and Jogtár is structured around them.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Combine with EU Case Law for harmonised topics">
    Pair Jogtár with **[European Union Case Law](/en/integrations/european-union/eu-case-law)** for harmonised EU regulation.
