Hungarian Golden Visa

Hungary's new 2024 immigration law
Residence permit for investment

The new law has become stricter in many aspects, but at the same time it has brought back the possibility for financially well-off foreigners to obtain the previously existing investment residence permit, with which the applicant can obtain a long-term (up to 10 years), renewable opportunity to stay in Hungary by investing a minimum of 250,000 euros. 


An important fact is that not only the applicant, but also his/her immediate family members can also obtain a residence permit without the requirement of a minimum period of stay in Hungary. With an investment-based residence permit you also have the right to work or have a business in Hungary without restrictions.


Investors are offered three options to choose from: invest in local real estate funds, buy residential property or make a donation to a higher education institution. You need to keep the investment for a minimum of 5 years. The investment condition must be fulfilled within 93 calendar days after the first entry into Hungary on the investor's visitor visa.
