EMPLOYING FOREIGN WORKERS IN HUNGARY

​

Employers sometimes need to hire foreign labor when there is a shortage of available Hungarian workers to fill certain jobs. If you are a Hungarian employer, you can hire foreign candidates to meet your labor needs when you can' t find Hungarians or permanent residents to fill job vacancies. Under certain conditions, the Hungarian immigration law may allow a Hungarian employer to hire a foreign employee for the vacant positions. If you're recruiting for your business, you'll want to make sure new hires are authorized to work in Hungary.
