Hungarian passport holders enter France freely as EU and Schengen citizens. No visa, no fee, no time limit on stays. A valid Hungarian national ID card or passport is sufficient. Both countries are in the Schengen Area, so flights between them have no systematic border control.
For stays beyond 3 months, no residence permit is technically required for EU citizens, but registering with the local mairie (town hall) makes administrative life easier. If you plan to work, your employer handles Social Security registration. For healthcare, apply for a Carte Vitale through the CPAM (Caisse Primaire d'Assurance Maladie) once you have proof of stable residence. Bring employment contracts, proof of address, and your birth certificate with apostille (long-form, translated by a sworn translator).
