Non-EEA Citizens

Non-EEA employees who arrive in Hungary for taking a job are faced with more complex legal procedures than employees with EEA citizenship.

Third country employees must expect a longer period that will elapse between their arrival and the start of work, as they are not allowed to commence their assignment right after arrival. In many cases following the entry they will need a residence permit and a work permit, and such applications will be adjudicated by the relevant local authorities in a period of up to 70 days, if the application and supporting documents are complete. Visa nationals are supposed to submit their application at the Hungarian Consulate in their home country or country of residence.

Due to strict regulations many aspects must be considered, and the process may have a few pitfalls. If you are an HR professional your best choice may be leaving that job to experts.
