• Residency and Work Permits:

• Company Owners/Directors: Foreigners who establish and actively manage a Hungarian company may be eligible to apply for a residence permit based on gainful activity. This often requires demonstrating that the business can provide sufficient income (around €1,500 per month is often assessed).

• Employees: If you plan to hire foreign employees (non-EU citizens), they will generally need to obtain a work permit in addition to a residence permit. EU citizens have the right to live and work in Hungary without limitations.
