About the Embassy of Hungary in Ukraine
According to the directory of foreign diplomatic missions published by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine (October 2026), the embassy is currently led by Adam Cegledi as Chargé d’Affaires a.i.

Do Hungarian citizens need a visa for Ukraine?
Holders of ordinary Hungarian passports do not need a visa for stays of up to 90 days within any 180-day period in Ukraine, according to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine’s entry-regime table (as of 8 June 2023). Ukraine is not part of the Schengen area and applies its own visa rules.
