Hungary is one of the countries visited by the largest number of tourists from our country every year. You can visit this country with a simple Hungarian Schengen visa. We share detailed information about how to get this visa in this article.
Hungary Visa Types
You can travel to Hungary, which is included in the list of Schengen countries, using a Hungarian Schengen visa. The reasons for applying for this type of visa can be tourism, visiting family or friends, business trip, medical examination or treatment, short-term study, exchange programs and many other non-permanent nuances. In Hungary, where many of our young people have visited in recent years, those who want to receive long-term education (such as bachelor's, master's, doctoral studies, etc.) with a duration of more than 90 days or to work permanently in an institution located here must receive an official invitation or acceptance from those educational and work institutions. if they have letters, they can also apply for a Hungarian national visa.
Hungary Schengen Visa
Similar to other Schengen countries, the Hungarian Schengen visa is available in single-entry and multiple-entry types. In any case, you can also apply for long-term visas, i.e. for three months, six months, one year, two years or five years. After obtaining a Hungarian Schengen visa, it is possible to enter any Schengen country. However, in any case, we recommend that you make your first entry into the Schengen area from the country where you received your visa, i.e. from Hungary. Otherwise, if you try to enter the Schengen area with a Hungarian visa from another country (especially from Western European countries) unless you mention it during your visa application, even if it is rare, it will become a problem for you, the border service of that country will turn you back and allow you to enter the country. may not give. This experience has been experienced in some cases and therefore we advise you to avoid this risk.

After your documents have been accepted, in any case, during your visa procedure, you may receive a call from the embassy and you may be asked to submit new documents. In some cases, it has been seen that during the visa procedure, the Hungarian embassy requires the applicants to purchase the hotels they have booked or to receive a confirmation letter about the reservations and submit the documents confirming this to the embassy.
The amount in your bank account is based on the travel dates you have indicated, i.e. the length of your stay in Schengen, the price of the flight tickets and hotels you have booked, etc. varies depending. In general, it is recommended that you have at least 1,500-3,000 AZN in your bank account for a one-week trip (equivalent to Euro or US dollars). This amount should fully cover your travel plan. When calculating the amount, you can sum up the average daily cost of 60-70 euros for each day you indicate that you will stay in the Schengen area with the price of your ticket and hotel reservations, and assume a little higher than the figure you received.
If you are an entrepreneur, you can submit the documents that will replace the certificate from the workplace (a copy of the TIN, a certificate issued by the Ministry of Taxes about your turnover, an extract from the register of your company) to the embassy.

If the applicant is under 18 years of age, in this case, if he is traveling alone, a copy of the permission document to leave the country from both parents or, if he is traveling with one of the parents, must also be submitted during the visa application.
It should be noted that even if you submit documents such as TIN, turnover certificate from the Ministry of Taxes, extract from the register of your company or sponsorship paper, permission paper, you must have each of these documents translated and certified into English by a notary.
Visa Procedure
The application for the Hungarian Schengen visa is made at the consular department of the Hungarian Embassy or at the visa application center called BLS International. The visa decision is made by the consul at the consular department of the Hungarian Embassy in Baku.
A visa appointment to submit documents to the consulate is scheduled online on the embassy's official website.
In order to submit the documents to the visa center, it is necessary to make an appointment at the visa center by calling +994 12 511 12 18. The visa center accepts documents from Monday to Friday from 8.30 to 14.30 every day.
The visa application can be made no earlier than 3 months before the date of the trip, and personal presence during the application is mandatory. Children under the age of 12 do not need to be brought to the Consular Section of the Hungarian Embassy, as they are not fingerprinted (but a separate appointment should be made for them, as the processing of the application takes time).
The Schengen visa procedure usually takes 10 calendar days (excluding official non-working days related to holidays) from the date of application.
When applying for a visa directly to the consulate, only a visa fee of 35 euros is paid. After the applicant submits his documents to the consulate, he is given a check for the payment of the visa fee. Based on this check, the applicant must make the payment at the main building of the International Bank of Azerbaijan (67 Nizami St.) and present the receipt of the payment to the consulate on the same day.
In case the applicant applies to the visa center, in addition to the 35 euros, 29 euros must be paid for the service fee of the visa center, and this payment is made on the spot when submitting the documents.
Hungary Schengen Visa Probability
Just as when applying for a visa to the embassies of all countries, your chances of getting a visa in Hungary depend on the state of your profile. Your workplace and position should be normal, your monthly income should be in the standard salary range (in experience there have been many cases of obtaining visas for people with monthly income in the range of 300-500 AZN), you should show enough money in your bank account to cover your entire trip, the nuances that bind you to the country (having property in your name) , the presence of your family and children) and your travel history are factors that increase your chances of getting a Hungarian Schengen visa. For those who have not previously held a Schengen visa, the Hungarian embassy is an easier approach and less risky than other embassies. In our experience, the Hungarian embassy is one of the embassies where people with no previous travel history receive the most Schengen visas. However, in any case, the fact that you already have Schengen visas is a factor that increases your chances of getting a visa from the Hungarian embassy.
