A Hungarian passport is an EU passport. That means the right to live, work, and travel across 27 European countries with no visa, no residency paperwork, and no limits on duration.
It passes down through generations, so if you have Hungarian ancestry you may already qualify without ever having lived in Hungary.
We handle the full application on your behalf: preparing paperwork, coordinating translations, and communicating with Hungarian authorities.
You provide the documents, we manage the process. From first check to final decision, you have a single point of contact who knows your case.
Everything you need to know before you start.
If you have at least one Hungarian parent, you almost certainly qualify. Most people with a Hungarian grandparent also qualify. The law is straightforward: Hungarian citizenship passes through bloodline, not birthplace. The fastest way to know is to run the free eligibility check.
You will need documents that prove your Hungarian ancestry: birth certificates, marriage certificates, and naturalization records for yourself and your Hungarian ancestor. The exact documents depend on your family situation, but we map out the full list for you and help you track down anything that is missing.
No to both. You do not need to speak Hungarian, and the entire application can be handled remotely. We work directly with Hungarian authorities on your behalf, so you never have to travel, visit a consulate, or navigate the process alone.
Most straightforward applications are processed within 6 to 12 months. More complex cases involving older records or missing documents can take longer. We give you a realistic timeline after reviewing your specific situation, so you know exactly what to expect from the start.
Denials are rare when the application is prepared correctly, and we review everything before submission to make sure it meets the requirements. If a denial does occur, we analyze the reason and advise on whether an appeal is possible. You are not left without options.
