Immigration Law

Direct legal support for immigration matters in Hungary.


I work directly with each client, without intermediaries, to ensure clear communication, predictable timelines and personally supervised procedures.

Immigration procedures in Hungary can be formal, document-heavy and difficult to navigate — especially for clients who do not speak Hungarian.


I assist foreign owners, employees and their families with clear, practical legal guidance throughout the entire process.

My goal is simple: to make each step predictable, understandable and compliant so you can focus on your work or business.

Residence and Work Permits

I support clients with the full range of residence and employment-related procedures, including:

▪ residence permits for business or employment purposes
▪ work permit requirements and employer-side documentation
▪ combined permits (work + residence)
▪ extensions, modifications and address updates
▪ communication with the immigration authority

I ensure that all documents are correctly prepared and deadlines are met, reducing delays and uncertainty.

Support for Foreign-Owned Companies

When a Hungarian company hires non-Hungarian staff or relocates management, the immigration process becomes part of everyday business operation.
I assist companies by:

▪ identifying the correct procedure and required documentation
▪ coordinating the process between the employer, employee and authorities
▪ guiding HR and management through compliance requirements
▪ preventing common administrative mistakes that can lead to delays

This helps international teams work and settle in Hungary smoothly and legally.

Family Reunification and Personal Procedures

Some clients need support not only for business reasons but for their family members as well.
I provide clear assistance with:

▪ residence permits for family members
▪ long-term residence options
▪ citizenship applications (where applicable)
▪ updates and renewals

These procedures often require careful document preparation — I help ensure the process is straightforward and understandable.

Clear information. Predictable process.


What you can expect:


– clear overview of requirements before the process starts
– realistic timelines based on current practice
– direct written guidance in clear English 


Most of my clients are unfamiliar with Hungarian administrative practice.
I provide clear written guidance in English at each stage of the process. 


I explain each stage in clear English so you know exactly what to expect and what steps follow next.

If you are unsure which permit applies to your situation, write to me and I will clarify the next legal steps.
