🇭🇺 Hungary

Work Permit Visa

The standard Hungarian work permit (combined single permit for residence and work) is for non-EU workers who don't qualify for the EU Blue Card. Requires employer sponsorship and typically a labor market test proving no suitable EU candidate is available. Valid for up to 2 years, renewable. Lower salary thresholds than Blue Card but also fewer benefits. Employer must demonstrate genuine need and provide suitable working conditions. Processing typically takes 30-70 days. Can lead to permanent residency after 5 years of continuous residence.
