ICT – Intra-Company Relocation for Companies

In the operation of international corporate groups, it often becomes necessary for key employees to continue their work in another country for a certain period of time. The related residence permit provides a legal framework for working within the corporate group in Hungary.

Preparing an application for a permit is a complex task, the conditions of which depend, among other things, on the nationality of the employee concerned, the nature of the job and the status of the host company. During the official procedure, it is of paramount importance that the submitted documents comply with the current regulations in terms of both content and form.

Our team of experts supports you at every stage of the process: we pre-assess eligibility, determine the applicable procedure, and then coordinate the entire administration for successful licensing. This gives our clients a predictable, seamless solution while ensuring full regulatory compliance.

Residence of EEA citizens in Hungary – expert information

Persons coming from the Member States of the European Union to work in Hungary do not require a separate residence permit, unless the person concerned resides in the country on a regular basis. A regular stay is considered to be a period of residence exceeding 90 days but not exceeding 180 days. In this case, the employer is obliged to register the employee and ensure that the relevant residence permit is obtained, a procedure known by legal reference as EEA citizen registration.

With our expert support, we ensure that registration and residence procedures are carried out legally, quickly and without problems. We advise on the entire process, from providing data to receiving certificates, so that you can concentrate on your work, studies or settlement plans.

It varies by case type, so we don't promise a general deadline. Once we see the case, we will provide a specific estimate and keep HR informed throughout the process.

Tell us right away. Changes in job title and salary can affect your license, and it's very difficult to fix it afterwards. If we know about it in advance, we can fix it.
