Hungary’s new Guest Investor Residency Program (GIRP) offers non-EU investors a residency pathway through legitimate economic contribution. The options are defined by Hungarian legislation and processed by the National Directorate-General for Aliens Policing.
Note: Only one route is needed. Plus, all options must come from lawful capital, traceable through Hungarian banking channels.
From €50,000 with real activity in Hungary
€100,000+ for industries like IT, logistics, or specialized consulting
Minimum €150,000 and at least one full-time Hungarian employee
Note: All companies must be registered at the Court of Registration, lease a real commercial address, and comply with the Immigration Office’s “active business” rules.
Standard processing time is 4 to 6 months from company setup to first residence card, assuming clean documents and booked immigration slot.
We check your eligibility and choose the best investment route based on your profile. This includes property, fund participation, or national business entry.
We supervise your capital movement into Hungary through verified channels. Our team ensures every financial step meets government compliance to avoid delays or rejections.
We help you collect, translate, notarize, and legalize all supporting documents. This includes background checks, birth certificates, bank letters, and property contracts. Magyar prepares your file to EU standards.
We submit your full file either at your local Hungarian consulate or from within Hungary, depending on your status. Magyar manages the submission, tracks the case, and handles embassy correspondence.
Once your file is accepted, we secure your biometric appointment in Hungary or abroad. We book the slot, brief you on the process, and send a Magyar representative when needed.
Your permit is issued within weeks and not years. We collect it on your behalf or schedule your pick-up, and we brief you on every obligation tied to your new legal stay.
A West African investor committed €120,000 into a Hungarian services firm based in Budapest. We didn’t use shell companies or “fast-track” tricks. His funds were registered with NAV, backed by a real lease, and matched to an active business plan in a permitted sector. We handled court registration, translated every document for the Immigration Office, and opened a local bank account under his name. He made one visit to Budapest for biometrics. Residency was issued for him and his wife, valid for two years. We’ve since handled renewals, filings, and compliance to keep his permit valid. Every step followed Hungarian procedural law It was clean. It was real. It still stands. Yours can be as solid.
We write applications that hold in immigration court. We don't give exaggerated promises, or shady shortcuts. Instead, we run your file like litigation.

Magyar handles property transactions, fund subscriptions, police registration, tax ID, and biometric scheduling in one coordinated chain.
We interface directly with Hungarian authorities through registered legal proxies.
We reject unstable applications early. That keeps our approval ratio perfect and protects your capital from entering a system that could collapse under poor filings.
