How a digital nomad can get a White Card and a residence permit in Hungary
Remote workers can receive a Hungary White Card, which serves as an equivalent to a residence permit for digital nomads. It is issued to individuals earning at least €3,000 per month, less than the requirement for Digital Nomad Visas to Portugal or Malta. The residence permit is issued for 12 months and can be extended once for an additional similar period. It grants the right to live in one of the most affordable European Union countries and travel to Schengen countries without a visa.
Citizenship
Visa-free travel to 170+ destinations with a Hungarian passport
One of the significant advantages of holding a Hungarian passport is the ability to travel to numerous countries without the need for a visa. As of August 2025, Hungary citizens have visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to 171 countries and territories. This global mobility places the Hungarian passport at 33rd place in the world in the Immigrant Invest Freedom of Travel ranking. This article provides a comprehensive list of visa-free countries and the duration of stay allowed for Hungarian passport holders.
Citizenship
Hungary dual citizenship requirements for different nationals
Holding citizenship in multiple countries opens up additional opportunities for work, business, and education by granting rights in more than one country. Hungary permits dual citizenship, especially encouraging those of Hungarian descent to reclaim their nationality. While Hungary does not offer citizenship directly by investment, it does provide residency through the Golden Visa Program, which can potentially lead to citizenship after a longer period of residency and naturalisation.

Portugal tax guide: rates, exemptions, and payment terms

The days of residing in Portugal don’t have to be consecutive, but they must total more than half the year. Learn what Portugal tax rates are valid and in what cases they are applied, how to change the tax residence and when to pay taxes to avoid fines.
