Visa & Entry

Hungarian passport holders enter Ireland freely as EU citizens. No visa, no fee, no time limit on stays. A valid Hungarian national ID card or passport is sufficient. Ireland is not in the Schengen Area, so there is passport/ID control on arrival from Hungary, but EU citizens pass through quickly.

For stays beyond 3 months, no formal registration is required for EU citizens in Ireland. To work, you just need a PPS number (Personal Public Service number), obtained at the local Intreo centre with proof of identity and proof of address. Opening a bank account requires proof of address (utility bill or employer letter) and photo ID. Healthcare access through the public system requires establishing ordinary residence (living in Ireland for at least 1 year or intending to).

Direct flights from Budapest to Dublin run about 3 hours on Ryanair and Aer Lingus. Ireland uses the euro. No vaccination requirements. Driving is on the left side of the road. Hungarian driving licenses are valid, but getting Irish insurance as a new resident can be expensive (EUR 1,500 to EUR 3,000 per year for first-time policyholders in Ireland). Rain gear is not optional, as Dublin averages 150 rainy days per year.
