Hungary, a country tucked away in the heart of Europe, beckons with a special blend of modern possibility and historical elegance.
The country provides various appealing avenues, each designed to suit a variety of contributions and aspirations, for individuals looking to make Hungary their permanent home.
The Hungary Golden Visa Program offers investors an opportunity to obtain a residence permit in the EU nation.
A foreigner may stay in Hungary only for a purpose, legal title, period and if the conditions are met, accepted by the Hungarian state.
A citizen of a third country may stay permanently in Hungary or undertake work with the permission of the Hungarian state, only if the third country citizen’s stay in Hungary serves the interests of Hungarian society and his employment in Hungary does not put any Hungarian citizen in an unfavorable situation.
Therefore, the Hungary Parliament has established procedural rules and sanctions system for the entry and stay of third-country nationals in Hungary.
