FAQs

Get answers to the most common questions about Hungary’s Residency by Investment Program. Our experts have compiled comprehensive information to help you make informed decisions.

What is the minimum investment required for Hungary residency?
The minimum investment is EUR 250,000 for real estate investment funds or EUR 300,000 for government bonds. These amounts are set by Hungarian law and represent the total investment required, with additional government and legal fees ranging from EUR 15,000 to EUR 25,000 depending on family size.
The complete process typically takes 4-6 months from initial document submission to residence card collection. This includes pre-approval (4-6 weeks), investment execution (1-2 weeks), application processing (6-8 weeks), and final approval (1-2 weeks). The Global Axis ensures efficient processing through expert case management.
Yes, Hungary’s program offers comprehensive family inclusion covering three generations. You can include your spouse, children up to 26 years old, and parents/grandparents from both sides. All family members receive identical residency rights including Schengen access, healthcare, and education benefits.
No, Hungary has no minimum residency requirements. You can maintain your residence permit without spending any specific time in Hungary. This makes it ideal for international investors who want European access while maintaining their global lifestyle and business operations elsewhere.
Hungarian residency provides visa-free travel to all 33 Schengen Area countries including Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Netherlands, Switzerland, and others. You can travel, work, and conduct business freely throughout the Schengen zone without additional visas or permits.

Hungarian citizenship provides full EU citizenship rights including voting, EU passport, and unlimited residence throughout the European Union.
Hungary offers excellent tax benefits with 9% corporate tax and 15% personal income tax rates. Non-resident status means no taxation on foreign-sourced income. Residents pay taxes only on Hungarian-sourced income. Professional tax planning can optimize your global tax position significantly.
Government bond investments offer capital protection with guaranteed return of principal after 5 years. Real estate fund investments provide professional management with exit opportunities after 5 years, though returns depend on fund performance. Both options are government-approved and regulated.
