The supreme audit institutions of the two countries have been keeping up working relations since the 1990s. In 2002, former Auditor General, Mr. Li Jinhua visited Budapest.

Throughout the following years, SAO hosted numerous delegations from China, who could gain information on the budgetary structure, social security funds, local governments, and the audit of these fields. In 2008 we informed the senior management of CNAO on our activities as Chairman of the International Organisation of Supreme Audit Institutions (INTOSAI) between 2004-2007. China has successfully run for the chairmanship of INTOSAI and will be holding the position between 2013-2016.
