The Hungarian Recording Industry Association was founded in 1992. This music industry association presents the Hungarian Music Awards as well as maintaining music charts for the country.

Hungarian certification falls exceptionally far from United States certification standards. This is ironic to say as the Hungarian Music Awards offer categories akin to the Grammy's and BRIT Awards (both of which come with high esteem of course).

My take away -
Although Hungarian certification requisites are on the lower end, the country's awards honors are truly one to take note of.
