Visa & Entry

Spanish passport holders enter Hungary with no restrictions. Both countries are EU and Schengen members, so flights between them have no passport checks. A valid Spanish national ID card or passport is your only requirement. No visa, no registration for stays under 90 days.

If you stay longer than 90 days, register at the local district immigration office (regionalis igazgatosag) for an EU registration certificate (regisztracios igazolas). The certificate is free and takes about 2 weeks to process. Bring your passport or ID, proof of address in Hungary, and evidence of employment or funds. EU citizens can work in Hungary without a work permit. Hungary uses the forint (HUF), not the euro.
