Important Changes to Hungarian Immigration Regulations - Must-know Requirements from July 15
The updates focus on key areas such as PROOF OF MEANS OF SUBSISTENCE, application deadlines, and the mandatory adoption of NEW APPLICATION FORMS. Understanding these changes is crucial to avoiding delays, rejection, and unnecessary financial costs.
Only New Forms are Accepted
It is important to note that from JULY 15, only the new, officially approved application forms may be used when submitting various applications. Applications submitted with the previous documents may be automatically rejected, regardless of whether everything else follows regulations. This is particularly important when applying for a RESIDENCE PERMIT in 2025.
As a company and employer, it is therefore advisable for you to act in time. Incorrect or outdated documentation may cause several weeks of delay and even serious financial losses, which can adversely affect not only the employee but also the company itself.
Employment in Hungary in 2025 - What to Pay Attention to This Year
Working in Hungary remains an attractive opportunity for many foreigners, but new regulations require even more precise documentation and timing. When applying for a residence permit, it is no longer enough to simply meet the formal requirements, applicants must provide adequate proof of livelihood and follow the prescribed steps exactly.
Company management should consult with their HR department, legal advisor, or ARC in a timely manner to avoid
lengthy follow-ups or last-minute crises.
Why is it important for a company to be also observant?
There is a common belief that immigration administration is solely the responsibility of the employee, but reality is not that simple. The 2025 regulations on residence permits directly or indirectly affect employers too in several ways.
During a possible inspection, the authorities may hold responsible not only the employee, but also their employer, if they failed to provide the required information or were not adequately prepared for the process. PREVENTION is always more cost-effective than paying fines.
