Entry for long stay (exceeding 90 days)
Regulations on a stay exceeding 90 days fall within the competence of national authorities, therefore there is no uniform routine among the Schengen States.
Foreign nationals requesting entry to Hungary with a purpose of a long stay may submit a residence permit application at our Embassy. Please visit OIF website for the specific requirements.
