Hungarian work and residence categories (Employment, Gainful Activity, Intra-Corporate Transfer, EU Blue Card, Hungarian Card, Seasonal Employment, Long-Term Mobility, Guest Self-Employment, Traineeship) require a Hungarian-side employer or sponsor to first secure approval from the Hungarian National Directorate-General for Aliens Policing — the labour-demand and employer-accreditation steps happen entirely inside Hungary. Indian travel-visa consultancies cannot substitute for that process. SureshotVisa specialises in Hungary's short-stay (Type C) visas plus long-term D visas for Study, Family Reunification, Research, Medical Treatment, Official, and Voluntary Service — all of which we file end-to-end through VFS. For work / employment categories, please consult a licensed Hungarian immigration lawyer or have your Hungarian employer initiate the process directly.

Hungary — Full Schengen member · Two India jurisdictions
Hungary processes Indian applications through TWO offices: the Embassy in New Delhi for north India, and the Consulate General in Mumbai for south & west (Mumbai, Chennai, Bengaluru, Cochin, Pune, Goa, Puducherry, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad). Submit to the wrong one and your file is returned without a decision. All applications go via VFS Joint Visa Application Centre.
Note: SureshotVisa handles Hungary Tourist, Business, Conference, Cultural & Sports, Educational Training, Medical, Family-of-EU-Citizen, Visiting Family/Friends, Airport Transit short-stay visas — plus long-term D visas for Study, Family Reunification, Research, Official, Medical, Voluntary Service. Work / employment / EU Blue Card / Hungarian Card / Intra-Corporate Transfer / Seasonal / Guest Self-Employment pages are informational only — those need a Hungarian-side employer or licensed Hungarian immigration lawyer.
The Hungary Long-Term Mobility Visa is a Long-Term Type D for specific mobility categories — typically family members of researchers under EU mobility programmes, or other long-term-mobility schemes recognized by Hungarian authorities. Informational only — consult a licensed Hungarian immigration lawyer.
What it costs
Paid directly to Hungary / VFS — these are not our service fee, and we never mark them up.
Figures per VFS Global, last verified 30 Apr 2026. Fees change without notice — the official page is final.
Visa fees are set by the Embassy of Hungary in INR and are non-refundable regardless of outcome. Children under 6 are visa-fee-exempt; school pupils, students, postgraduates, researchers attending scientific events, family members of EU/EEA citizens, and accompanying teachers may also be visa-fee-exempt — confirm at submission. Diplomatic and service passport holders are exempt from the visa fee. Long-term D visas carry a separate ₹1,920 biometrics service charge on top of the visa fee.
Flights · Hotels · Insurance · Itinerary
Hungary applies the Schengen rules, so travel insurance is not a nice-to-have — it is a legal condition of the visa.
2 of 4 are compulsory for Hungary
Where people slip: Flying into one city and out of another with nothing showing how you travel between them. Officers read the whole route, and an unexplained gap reads as a plan that does not hold together.
Book for ₹708 (+₹472 per family member)Where people slip: Free-cancellation bookings are accepted, but if the entire file is free-cancellation the officer sees a trip nobody has committed to. Some of it should be real spend.
Confirmed hotel booking, ₹590 per hotel: message us firstWhere people slip: Buying cover for the adults and forgetting the children. Every traveller needs their own EUR 30,000, infants included — a real refusal we have seen on a family of four.
What a Schengen policy must showWhere people slip: Spending more nights in another Schengen country than in Hungary. That gets a file rejected before it is even assessed.
The letter your itinerary attaches toWe can arrange the flight reservation, the hotel and the itinerary for your Hungary file — each sold separately.
We are a B2B travel agency as well as a visa consultancy, working with partners including Riya Travel — so the flight reservation and the confirmed hotel booking both come from us, and you deal with one team. Every booking is a real one under your own name. We do not sell travel insurance: buy the policy directly from an insurer.
None of them is part of our visa fee: each is bought on its own, at the price below, with or without our visa service.
Flight reservation ₹708 (+₹472 per extra family member) · Confirmed hotel booking ₹590 per hotel · Travel itinerary ₹1,499. GST included.
Delivery. Usually within 30 minutes during office hours, Mon–Sat 10:00–18:00 IST. Confirmed hotel bookings are not bought online: message us first on WhatsApp or email info@sureshotvisa.com with the city, dates and travellers.

Every case here is different
There is no honest standard answer for Hungary long-term mobility visa (type d) — the route depends on who is sponsoring you, what the employer has already started, and which region is processing it. So rather than publish generic answers that may not fit your case, we would rather read your actual situation. Send us what you have: an offer letter, an email from the employer, or just the facts as they stand. A consultant at our licensed firm will tell you straight what is possible, what is not, and what it would take.
