The National directorate general of aliens policing (NDGAP) is the sole government authority responsible for processing applications for guest investors. A residence permit for guest investors may be granted to a third-country national whose entry and stay in Hungary is in national economic interest due to his/her investments realised in Hungary.
The application for a residence permit for guest investors must be submitted the latest on the 30th day from the date of the first entry into the territory of Hungary with a visa for guest investors before the competent Regional Directorate of NDGAP, or the Central Regional Directorate of NDGAP if your place of accommodation is located within Budapest or Pest County (only following prior appointment booking, which is available here), or via the electronic information system and procedure initiation platform of Enter Hungary.
