Where Hungarian citizens can apply for eTA
The eTA is not a visa, but a travel authorization that is linked to the traveler’s passport. The eTA process usually takes only a few minutes, and once approved, the document is linked to your passport. 25 countries allow Hungarians to enter with an electronic authorization for a stay of up to 90 days.

What you need to know before leaving
As citizens of an EU member state, Hungarians have a privileged position when travelling within the Schengen area. They can move freely within all Schengen countries without restrictions.
From 2 April 2025, Hungarian citizens, like all EU, EEA and Swiss citizens (except the Irish), will need an Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA) to enter the UK. However, they will still be able to use ePassport to cross the border upon arrival. A valid passport is required for entry, and its validity must cover the entire period of stay in the country.
From August 2023, Hungarians will need an Electronic Travel Authorization (ESTA) to visit the US. However, the validity of the ESTA has been reduced to 1 year. In addition, Hungarian travelers now need to apply for a new ESTA before each planned trip, as it only allows one entry into the country within 1 year.
