Hungary Embassy Warsaw

Who runs the Hungarian Embassy?

The embassy is currently led by Balázs Dobri as chargé d’affaires a.i., according to the Polish Foreign Ministry’s list of foreign missions (September 2026). Hungary also has career consulates in Gdansk, Krakow and Wroclaw. Six honorary consulates – in Bydgoszcz, Kielce, Lodz, Lublin, Poznan and Rzeszow – support Hungarian citizens outside the capital.

Consular services

Depending on where you live, consular matters may also be handled by the consulate general in Krakow, the consulate general in Gdansk and the vice consulate in Wroclaw.

Documents checklist

The most frequent applications and the documents the Hungarian authorities ask for:

Hungarian passport (application abroad)

• Apply in person with an appointment – fingerprints and photo are taken at the consulate
• Proof of Hungarian citizenship: valid ID card or passport, a passport expired within the last year, or a recent citizenship certificate
• Any previous passport and your Hungarian address card (lakcímkártya), if you have one
• Without a valid Hungarian document: photo ID such as a foreign passport or driving licence
• Births, marriages or name changes abroad must first be registered in Hungary
• Consular fee; the passport is produced in Hungary (usually 3–6 weeks)
