Hungary offers temporary and permanent residence permits to business owners who take an active role in their company as directors. To start the business immigration procedure, we need to set up a Hungarian company, prepare a business plan, and ensure that all requirements for the company’s successful operation are met. Once the director has his permit, the spouse and children can also apply for family unification and come to Europe. This program is available to all nationalities.
Doing business in Hungary
To be eligible for this program, you need to start and operate a Hungarian company. This is quite easy to do, however, because Hungary offers a very favourable business environment, with a low corporate tax (9%), cheap and convenient company formation, a central location in Europe and within the Schengen zone, and relatively low living and operating costs. If you wish to start a business in Hungary or move some of your existing business activity to Europe, we can assist you in writing a business plan that will satisfy the residency requirements and help you realize your business goals.
Business visas
To start this procedure, you will have to travel to Hungary at least briefly, to open a bank account for your new Hungarian company. If you already hold a Schengen visa for Europe, you can use that to enter Hungary – alternatively, we can help you acquire a short-term business visa for this purpose.
The benefits of a Hungarian residence permit
By acquiring residency in Hungary through business ownership, you and your family will be able to travel freely to and within the Schengen zone, and take advantage of Hungary’s low living costs, favourable business environment and central European location. Schedule a meeting with one of our business and immigration experts to discuss these benefits and the best procedure for you and your family!
HUNGARIAN INVESTMENT IMMIGRATION PROGRAM
Europe’s newest and most attractive investment immigration program presents an exceptional opportunity for getting PR in an EU and Schengen member state, and live, do business, or travel freely to and within Europe.
