Why Hungary for Residency by Investment?
Hungary offers a central European location, competitive costs, reputable universities, and a stable EU framework—ideal for investors from Pakistan and the wider region.
What is the Hungary Golden Visa (Guest Investor Program)?
The Hungary Golden Visa, often referred to as the Guest Investor Program, is a residency-by-investment route that allows foreign investors and their families to obtain a long-term residence permit in Hungary. By making a qualifying investment in approved vehicles, you can secure a multi-year residence card in an EU member state with growing economic prospects and a strategic location.
The program is designed for reputable investors with verifiable funds and clean backgrounds. Depending on the final regulations and investment type, options may include participation in approved real estate funds, direct property acquisition, or other eligible contributions. Residency rights can be renewed if conditions are maintained and may, over time, support long-term residence planning under Hungarian law.
Jaggi Consultants, headquartered in Islamabad, Pakistan, helps clients from Pakistan, the Gulf, and beyond to structure their Hungary Golden Visa applications in a compliant, tax-aware way. We work with Hungarian legal and investment partners to ensure your application matches both your personal objectives and the latest government rules.

Values below are indicative and may be updated by the Hungarian authorities. During your consultation, Jaggi Consultants will align your plan with the most recent legal and investment framework in Hungary.
Initial Consultation & Hungary Strategy
We hold a detailed session (in person, online, or via WhatsApp) to understand your goals, family structure, risk appetite, and expected investment range for the Hungary Golden Visa.
Pre-Eligibility & Guest Investor Fit
Our team reviews your background, financial history, and documentation to assess your fit for the Hungary Golden Visa and the Guest Investor pathway before you commit funds.
Investment Route & Guest Investor Structure
In coordination with Hungarian partners, we shortlist suitable, compliant routes—such as approved real estate funds or eligible property options—and structure them so funds can be safely transferred once you are inside Hungary.
Document Preparation & Guest Investor File
We prepare application forms, supporting evidence, translations, and legal documentation required both for your Guest Investor Visa and the subsequent residence permit stage.
Guest Investor Visa & In-Country Compliance
After approval, you and your family receive a short-term Guest Investor Visa (typically around 90 days) to enter Hungary before transferring the full investment. While in Hungary, you complete on-the-ground compliance, open bank accounts, sign investment contracts, and then transfer funds in line with regulations.
Residence Permit Issuance & Post-Arrival Support
Once funds are transferred and all conditions are met, your long-term residence permit is issued. We support you with address registration, school and university planning for children, and ongoing guidance on renewals and long-term planning.
- What is the Guest Investor Visa?
In the Hungary Golden Visa framework, the Guest Investor Visa is a short-term entry visa (typically issued for around 90 days) that allows you and your family to enter Hungary before transferring the full investment amount. During this window you can complete in-person compliance steps and prepare your qualifying investment.
While in Hungary under this visa, you usually open a local bank account, finalise contracts with approved investment providers, and complete any remaining due-diligence formalities. Once the funds are transferred in line with Hungarian regulations, your file can move forward to the long-term residence permit stage. Jaggi Consultants coordinates these stages with our Hungarian partners so the transition from visa to residence is as smooth as possible.
Most documentation and planning can be handled while you are in Pakistan or your current country of residence. Travel is typically required for biometrics, residence card issuance, and optional onshore services such as property visits or account opening.

Key Benefits of the Hungary Golden Visa
The Hungary Golden Visa is more than a residence permit—it is a long-term strategy to future-proof your mobility, lifestyle, and family security through a stable EU base.
Secure EU Residency
Gain a multi-year residence permit in Hungary, an EU member state, with the potential to renew your status subject to legal requirements and ongoing compliance.
Family Coverage under One Strategy
Include spouse and dependent children in a single investment plan, simplifying long-term residency and education planning for your entire family.
Strategic European Base
Use Hungary as a central platform for European travel, business, and education with a relatively competitive cost of living compared to many Western EU capitals.
Schengen Mobility
Enjoy facilitated travel within the Schengen Area, subject to applicable rules, making it easier to attend meetings, explore opportunities, and visit family.
Education & Healthcare Access
Access to reputable universities and healthcare options in Hungary and, where applicable, across Europe enhances your family’s long-term prospects.
Geographic & Asset Diversification
Combine residency planning with carefully selected European investments to diversify your geographic risk and asset base beyond a single country.
Pathway to Permanent Residence & Citizenship
The Hungary Golden Visa gives you a medium- to long-term residence permit linked to a qualifying investment. With the right planning, this residence can form part of a pathway towards long-term residence and, potentially, Hungarian or European Union citizenship—subject to Hungarian law and future regulations.
Pathway to Long-Term / Permanent Residence
While exact rules can change, most routes to long-term or permanent residence in EU countries depend on stable, continuous legal stay and ongoing compliance.
- Maintain your Hungary Golden Visa residence permit lawfully over a continuous period, renewing on time and keeping your investment compliant.
- Spend sufficient time in Hungary, in line with residence and long-term residence rules in force at the time (physical presence requirements may change).
- Keep a clean criminal record, meet public-order and public-security standards, and respect local tax and reporting obligations.
Pathway to Hungarian / EU Citizenship
Citizenship is never automatic with the Hungary Golden Visa. However, long-term residents who meet residence-duration, integration, and other legal criteria may be able to apply for naturalisation in the future.
Exact pathways, timelines, and requirements are defined by Hungarian legislation and may change. Through our Hungarian legal partners, Jaggi Consultants will brief you on the options that apply to your case at the time you apply.
- Hold long-term residence in Hungary for the number of years required by law before applying for citizenship.
- Demonstrate integration into Hungarian society, which may include language knowledge, familiarity with local civic life, and stable ties to the country.
- Continue to meet good-character, public-order, and other eligibility criteria at the time of your citizenship application.
