Eredetiségnyilvántartás

Eredetiségnyilvántartás, often translated as "originality declaration" or "proof of originality," is a legal and administrative process in Hungary. It serves to confirm that a submitted document, work, or creation is indeed the original product of the person or entity submitting it, and has not been plagiarized or infringed upon the intellectual property rights of others. This declaration is typically required in various contexts, including academic submissions, patent applications, copyright registrations, and the verification of professional qualifications.

The purpose of eredetiségnyilvántartás is to establish authenticity and ownership. By signing such a declaration, the submitter attests to their authorship and takes responsibility for the integrity of the content. This process helps to prevent academic dishonesty, protect intellectual property, and ensure the validity of official records. For academic institutions, it is a crucial part of maintaining academic integrity and preventing plagiarism in theses, dissertations, and other scholarly works. In the realm of inventions and creative works, it forms a foundational step in the process of securing legal protection for intellectual property. The specific requirements and forms for eredetiségnyilvántartás can vary depending on the governing body or institution.
