Third-country nationals are required to have a visa for entering the
territory of Hungary and also for a stay of up to 90 days within a
180-day-period if they come from a country that is under visa obligation
according to the Schengen acquis.
It is worth checking to see if your country has a bilateral agreement
with Hungary, because in this case there is no need for a visa. If not than you
are required to have a visa for entering the territory of Hungary and also for
a stay of up to 90 days within a 180-days period if they come from a country
that is under visa obligation according to the Schengen acquis.
The visa application has to be submitted to the Hungarian Consulate in the country where the permanent or temporary residence of the applicant is located or in the country of the applicant’s nationality. If you arrive from a third country, we recommend taking out health insurance.
