Common reasons for Hungary Schengen Visa refusals in Pakistan

While the exact reasons for Hungary Schengen Visa refusals in Pakistan can vary significantly from one case to another, some common grounds for visa denial are generally shared across different Schengen countries, including Hungary. These may include:

Insufficient or incorrect documentation : If the visa application is incomplete or the provided documents are inaccurate or misleading, the visa can be refused. This can include a lack of evidence of travel insurance, missing financial documents, missing invitation letters if necessary, or a lack of proof of accommodation in Hungary.

Insufficient funds : Schengen countries require proof that the visa applicant has enough money to support themselves during their visit. If an applicant cannot provide satisfactory evidence of sufficient funds, this can be a reason for visa denial.

Lack of travel insurance : Travel insurance is mandatory for Schengen visa applications. Lack of it could result in a visa denial.

Overstay risk : If there's any evidence to suggest that the applicant might overstay their visa term in the Schengen zone, the application may be denied.

Incorrect visa category : If the purpose of the visit doesn't align with the chosen visa category, the application may be refused.

What to expect after submitting the Hungary Schengen visa application in Pakistan?

After submitting your Hungary Schengen visa application in Pakistan, you can anticipate the following:

Visa interview : In some cases, you might be required to attend an interview during the application process. The embassy will contact you to schedule an interview if necessary.

Application tracking : Many embassies offer a way to track the status of your visa application online. You can check the status of your application using the tracking number provided to you upon submission.

Communication from the embassy : The embassy or consulate will inform you if they require additional documents or information. Be sure to respond promptly to any communication from the embassy.

Hungary Schengen Visa approval and denial for Pakistani citizens

Once the application is processed, you'll either receive your visa or a rejection letter. Here's what to expect:

Visa decision : After processing, the embassy will notify you of the decision on your visa application. If approved, you can collect your passport with the visa from the embassy or through a courier service if offered by the embassy. If your application is denied, you'll receive a letter stating the reasons for the refusal.

Appeal option : If your application is denied, you generally have the right to appeal the decision. The refusal letter will provide instructions on how to submit an appeal.

At iVisa, we strive to guide you through each step of this process, including tracking your application, preparing for a potential interview, understanding the decision on your application, and what steps to take in case of a refusal. We aim to make this process as clear and simple as possible.

Next on the list is Belarus, with a visa refusal rate of only 1.5% at the Minsk consulate, implying a visa success rate of 98.5%. This figure becomes even more noteworthy considering the sheer volume of applications from Belarus, amounting to 13,468.

This high success rate could stem from the shared cultural and historical ties between Hungary and Belarus, facilitating mutual trust and understanding between the two nations.

3. USA (98% Success Rate)

With a visa success rate of 99% in New York, the United States of America stands third of the list. The average success rate across the USA’s four consulates (New York, Washington DC, Los Angeles, and Chicago) is 97.89%. This is impressive considering the volume of visa applications, with the total number of applications across all four consulates being 835.

The high success rate could be attributable to the strong diplomatic ties between Hungary and the United States. Furthermore, the United States’ robust economy and high living standards likely make overstaying less attractive to its citizens, hence the high approval rate.

4. Ecuador (97.3% Success Rate)

Fourth on the list is Ecuador. The consulate in Quito reported a low visa refusal rate of 2.7%, indicating a high visa approval rate. Despite a relatively modest number of visa applications (519), Ecuador’s success rate signifies a strong success rate for those intending to visit Hungary.

5. Canada (95.6% Success Rate)

Canada takes the fifth position, with a visa refusal rate of 4.4% in the Ottawa consulate. With a total of 179 applications, Hungary continues to be a popular choice for Canadian citizens. Given Canada’s strong diplomatic relationships and the high standard of living, Canadian applicants are less likely to overstay their visas, which might contribute to the high visa success rate.

Hungary’s Top 5 Countries with Lowest Visa Success Rates: A Comprehensive Analysis

1. algeria (25.3% success rate).

With an alarming success rate of 25.3%, Algeria takes the top spot for the lowest visa success rate for Hungary. The Hungarian consulate in Algiers, the capital of Algeria, processed 1,226 visa applications.

This low success rate suggests potential diplomatic strains or an absence of bilateral agreements that could facilitate the visa process. It could also indicate that applicants from Algeria might not meet Hungary’s visa requirements frequently, whether due to documentation or other criteria.

2. Nigeria (35.5% Success Rate)

Coming second is Nigeria, with a success rate of 35.5% at the Hungarian consulate in Abuja. This success rate pertains to 640 visa applications lodged. This figure, again, points to potential difficulties Nigerian citizens face in meeting the stringent requirements of the Hungarian visa process.

The low visa success rate for Nigeria could be attributed to several factors, including, but not limited to, economic disparities, security concerns, or issues relating to documentation.

3. Ethiopia (37.3% Success Rate)

The Hungarian consulate in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, reported a success rate of 37.3%, securing Ethiopia the third position on our list. The data relates to 275 visa applications. While the number of applications is comparatively lower, the success rate rate remains a cause for concern. The socio-economic factors that could affect the visa application process could be at play here as well.

4. Tunisia (40.6% Success Rate)

The North African country of Tunisia occupies the fourth position, with a success rate of 40.6%. The data corresponds to the Hungarian consulate in Tunis and comprises 517 visa applications. Again, the reasons for the relatively low success rate could span a multitude of factors, including socio-economic or geopolitical issues.

5. Ghana (46.5% Success Rate)

Ghana rounds out the top five, with a 46.5% success rate. This rate comes from the Hungarian consulate in Accra, the Ghanaian capital, dealing with 979 visa applications. The substantial success rate suggests that Ghanaian citizens may frequently encounter difficulties meeting Hungary’s visa prerequisites.

Hungary Visa Success Rate: A Historical Trend Analysis (2018-2022)

2018: the steady success (92.2% success rate).

In 2018, Hungary received a total of 228,793 visa applications, with a success rate of 92.2%. This high success rate is indicative of a welcoming stance towards visitors, and possibly of the efficiency and effectiveness of the visa processing procedure.

It also reflects the increasing popularity of Hungary as a travel destination, thanks to its unique blend of Eastern and Western European cultures, along with its vibrant history and beautiful landscapes.

2019: Consistent Approvals (92.2% Success Rate)

Hungary maintained a steady success rate of 92.2% in 2019, identical to the previous year, despite a significant increase in visa applications to 237,851.

The consistency in the approval rate suggests that Hungary was able to efficiently manage the increase in visa requests without tightening its approval standards. This might be due to improvements in the administrative process, allowing more applications to be processed smoothly and promptly.

2020: A Dip Amidst Global Uncertainty (90.9 %Success Rate)

In 2020, the number of visa applications saw a dramatic drop to 45,198, likely due to travel restrictions and uncertainties arising from the global COVID-19 pandemic. Interestingly, the success rate also declined to 90.9% during this year.

The lower approval rate might be a reflection of more stringent visa policies put in place in response to the pandemic or other global factors.

2021: A Strong Recovery (95.2% Success Rate)

Despite the continuing impact of the pandemic, the year 2021 saw a marked rebound in both the number of visa applications and the success rate. Hungary received 70,269 applications and achieved an impressive success rate of 95.2%, the highest in the five-year period.

This rebound suggests that Hungary was eager to welcome back international visitors as travel restrictions eased and vaccination programs rolled out globally. The exceptionally high success rate in 2021 might be due to the country’s conscious effort to revive its tourism sector and strengthen international relations post-pandemic.

2022: An Established Ascendancy (84.9% Success Rate)

In 2022, Hungary saw a significant surge in visa applications, receiving 144,227 requests. The success rate, however, slightly dropped to 84.9%. The increase in applications could be a reflection of the global recovery from the pandemic, with more people resuming their travel plans.

The lower success rate, in contrast to the previous year, might be attributed to the sheer increase in volume of applications, or perhaps some tightening of visa policies following the pandemic.

Hungary Success Rate by Visa Type

The success rates also fluctuated depending on the visa category.

• Tourist Visa (89.0% Success Rate) Being a popular destination for travellers, Hungary’s tourist visa has a success rate of approximately 89.0%.
• Business Visa (92.4% Success Rate) Business visas, pivotal for international commerce and corporate collaborations, has an estimated 92.4% success rate with 13,860 approvals.
• Student Visa (84.6% Success Rate) The student visa category, which caters to international students wishing to study in Hungary, has a roughly 84.6% success rate.
• Work Visa (85.5% Success Rate) The work visa category, critical for those seeking employment opportunities in Hungary, has an approximate 85.5% success rate with 4,275 approvals.

How To Improve Your Chances of Success

Visa applications are meticulous processes that necessitate careful preparation and thorough documentation. While there is no guaranteed formula for success, following certain guidelines may enhance your chances of obtaining a Hungarian visa.

• Provide Complete and Accurate Documentation: A crucial part of any visa application is the provision of complete and accurate documentation. Make sure to check the requirements list provided by the Hungarian embassy or consulate, and submit every required document, ensuring they are up-to-date and genuine.
• Proof of Financial Stability: Demonstrating that you have enough funds to sustain yourself during your stay in Hungary is critical. Bank statements, salary slips, or any relevant financial documents can serve this purpose. It’s important not to artificially inflate your account as this may lead to suspicion.
• Book Return Tickets: Booking your return tickets beforehand can be a convincing factor for visa approval. It indicates your intention to return to your home country after your stay in Hungary.
• Travel Health Insurance: Secure comprehensive travel health insurance that covers any medical emergencies during your stay in Hungary. It should cover at least €30,000 and be valid across all Schengen countries.
• Clear Purpose of Visit: Your application should clearly mention the purpose of your visit. Whether it’s for tourism, business, or study, provide all relevant details and necessary supporting documentation.
• Follow Legal Channels: Always use legal channels to apply for your visa. Using illegal or suspicious channels can lead to immediate visa denial and potential legal trouble.

5 Common Mistakes to Avoid

Certain common mistakes could undermine the success of your visa application. It’s crucial to steer clear of these to improve your chances of approval.

• Incomplete Application: This is a common mistake that can lead to immediate rejection. Always check to make sure you’ve completed all sections of the application and submitted all the necessary documents.
• Providing False Information: Providing false or misleading information in your application is a serious offense that can lead to visa denial and even a ban on future applications.
• Ignoring Visa Validity: Overstaying your visa is a severe violation of immigration rules. Ensure that you’re aware of your visa’s validity period and depart Hungary within the stipulated timeframe.
• Not Updating Changes: If there are any significant changes in your circumstances after you’ve applied for your visa, such as changes in marital status, employment, or purpose of visit, make sure to update this information with the Hungarian embassy or consulate.
• Failing to Show Ties to Home Country: Consulate officers need assurance that you will return to your home country after your visit. So, demonstrating strong ties to your home country, such as a stable job, family, or property can improve your chances of visa approval.

Remember, while these tips may increase the likelihood of a successful application, each case is evaluated individually, and final decisions rest with the immigration authorities.

Can I Appeal a Rejected Visa Application?

Yes, it is possible to appeal a visa rejection if you believe that the decision was unjustified or made in error. This process involves submitting a formal appeal letter outlining your objections to the rejection and why you think the decision should be reviewed.

This letter should be submitted to the Hungarian embassy or consulate that processed your visa application.

Be aware that this process may take several weeks or months, and there’s no guarantee of a favorable outcome. It’s crucial to be as detailed and comprehensive in your appeal letter as possible, presenting clear and strong reasons to support your case.

Can I Reapply for a Visa Immediately After a Rejection?

While there’s no formal waiting period before you can reapply after a visa rejection, it’s generally recommended that you take the time to understand the reasons for the rejection and rectify those issues before applying again.

In many cases, the reasons for the visa refusal are communicated to the applicant. Use this feedback to address the deficiencies in your previous application.

Keep in mind that a fresh application will require a new set of application fees, and the decision will once again lie at the discretion of the consulate.

Does a Visa Rejection Affect My Future Visa Applications?

While a previous visa rejection will be on record and may be taken into account when evaluating your future visa applications, it doesn’t automatically mean that your future applications will be rejected.

Each application is assessed independently based on its merits and the applicant’s current circumstances. However, if the reasons for the past rejection continue to apply, then it may impact the decision of your future applications.

If you had a visa application rejected due to fraudulent activities or misrepresentation, it could have severe consequences for future applications. In these cases, it’s crucial to address these issues properly before reapplying.

Can I Get a Refund if My Visa Application is Rejected?

Regrettably, the visa application fee is non-refundable, regardless of the final decision made by the Hungarian consulate or embassy.

This is because the fee covers the administrative cost of processing the visa application, not the visa itself. Therefore, whether the application is accepted, rejected, or withdrawn, the fee will not be refunded.

How Long Does it Take for the Consulate to Process My Appeal?

The processing time for visa appeal applications varies and depends on several factors, including the complexity of the case and the workload of the embassy or consulate.

Typically, it can take several weeks to a few months to receive a response.

The consulate or embassy will review your appeal, consider any additional information or evidence provided, and make a new decision. It’s important to be patient during this process, as rushing or persistently inquiring about the status of your appeal may not expedite the process.

Can my Hungary Visa be Revoked After it has been Issued?

Yes, a Hungary visa can be annulled or revoked after it has been issued under certain circumstances.

The visa could be annulled if it was found that the conditions for issuing it were not met at the time of its issuance. Similarly, the visa could be revoked if it is determined that the conditions for issuing it are no longer met.

For instance, if the visa holder is found to have provided fraudulent documents or misrepresented their circumstances, the visa could be revoked. If a visa is annulled or revoked, the visa holder must leave the Schengen area immediately, unless they have the right to stay on other grounds.

What Should I Do if I Lose My Passport Containing My Hungary Visa?

If you lose your passport containing your Hungary visa, you should take the following steps immediately:

• Report the Loss : Report the loss to the local police and obtain a police report.
• Contact Your Embassy : Inform your country’s embassy or consulate in Hungary. They can guide you on obtaining a replacement passport.
• Inform Hungarian Authorities : Notify the Hungarian immigration authorities about the loss of your passport and visa.
• Visa Reissuance : Once you receive a new passport, you may need to reapply for a Hungarian visa, depending on your circumstances and remaining duration of your stay.
• Document the Process : Keep copies of all reports and correspondence related to the loss and replacement of your passport and visa.

Losing your passport with a valid visa can be distressing, but swift action and following the correct procedures can help resolve the situation effectively.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

How can i verify if my visa is genuine.

Verifying the authenticity of your visa is essential to avoid any legal issues. You can do so by contacting the Hungarian embassy or consulate that issued the visa. Never use third-party services that cannot guarantee confidentiality and security.

Can I visit other Schengen countries with my Hungary visa?

Yes, a Hungary Schengen visa typically allows you to travel freely within the other 25 Schengen countries. However, you should always verify the specifics of your visa.

Can I bring my dependents to Hungary on my visa

It depends on the type of visa. Some visas, like certain work or student visas, may allow you to bring dependents. You would need to confirm this with the Hungarian consulate or embassy during your application process.

Can I extend my stay beyond the duration granted by my visa?

It depends on the type of visa you have. In some instances, you might be able to apply for an extension. However, it’s recommended to apply for the correct length of stay at the beginning of your visa application process to avoid any inconvenience.

How early can I apply for a visa before my intended travel date to Hungary?

It’s generally recommended to apply for a Hungary visa at least 15 days before your intended travel date. However, you can apply as early as six months before your travel.

What happens if my Hungary visa expires while I'm still in the country?

Overstaying your visa is a serious offense and can result in penalties, including fines, deportation, and bans from reentering the Schengen area. If you realize your visa has expired while you’re in Hungary, contact the local immigration authorities immediately to understand your options.

Persons with the Right of Free Movement and Residence

• Third Country Nationals (Non-EU & EEA citizens)
• Work permission for students from third countries

Since 21 December 2007, Hungary has been a member of the Schengen Area , and applies the Schengen legislation in full. (At present, 26 states, 22 of the 28 member states of the European Union, as well as Norway, Iceland, Liechtenstein and Switzerland are part of the Schengen Area.)

Significant changes subsequent to Hungary’s Schengen membership are:

• visas and residence permits issued by one of the Schengen States are valid for Hungary too,
• visas issued by Hungarian representations abroad and residence permits issued by Hungarian national authorities are also valid for the entire Schengen Area. 

The visa sticker, designed with the same appearance for all Schengen States, bears the words “valid for Schengen States”. The Schengen visa and entry regulations are only applicable for a stay not exceeding 90 days within a 180 days period. Rules relating to stays exceeding 90 days are laid down in the national law of the member states concerned.

Right of entry and residence for a period not exceeding 90 days Citizens of the EEA ( EU + Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein ) and Switzerland may enter the territory of Hungary with a valid travel document or personal identification document and have the right of residence for a period not exceeding 90 days from the date of entry. Family members of the above mentioned citizens who are not citizens of EEA states but are citizens of third countries and family members of a Hungarian citizen or an EEA citizen may enter the territory of Hungary with a valid travel document and – unless otherwise prescribed by any directly applicable EU legislation or an international agreement – with a valid visa.

Right of residence for a period exceeding three months

Students who are EEA citizens can reside in Hungary for more than three months if they are enrolled at an education institution offering accredited programmes. Within ninety-three days from the time of entry, such students have to register at the regional directorate of the National Directorate-General for Aliens Policing . At the time of registration, students should be able to present a certificate of admission issued by the education institution or any other document for the verification of their student status. The registration certificate has no expiry date, and is valid together with a valid travel document or personal identification document. The spouse and children of students who satisfy the above-mentioned requirements shall have the right of residence for a period exceeding three months.

Third Country Nationals (Non-EU & EEA citizens)  

Third country nationals are required to have a visa for entering the territory of Hungary and also for a stay of up to 90 days within a 180 days period if they come from a country that is under visa obligation according to the Schengen acquis. It is worth to check, if your country has a bilateral agreement with Hungary, because in this case there is no need of getting a visa. The visa application has to be submitted to the Hungarian Consulate in the country where the permanent or temporary residence of the applicant is located or in the country of the applicant’s nationality.

If third country nationals wish to stay longer than three months, they need to have a valid travel document, the necessary permits for return or continued travel and they should be able to verify the purpose of entry and stay. They should have both accommodation and enough financial resources to cover their costs plus a full healthcare insurance or sufficient financial resources necessary for taking out healthcare services. A residence permit authorizes third-country nationals to reside in Hungary for a period of minimum 90 days but not exceeding two years. The application for a residence permit should be submitted to the Hungarian Consulate in the country where the permanent or temporary residence of the applicant is located or in the country of the applicant’s nationality and will be judged by the competent Hungarian regional directorate. Those already residing in Hungary can submit their application directly to the competent regional directorate. Students who are third-country nationals can obtain a residence permit if they have full time legal student relationship with a registered Hungarian public educational institution working in line with the public education information system. The same rules are applied in the case when third country nationals wish to stay in Hungary in order to carry on full time studies organized by a state-recognized higher education institution, or to participate in a preparatory course for studies organized by a state-recognized higher education institution and can prove to meet the language skill requirements.

Researchers can get a residence permit when their purpose of stay is to carry out a research project under a hosting agreement concluded with a research organization accredited in line with specific legislation. For citizens of third countries , the Immigration Office issues a new biometric document, the EU Blue Card , a work permit and a residence permit enabling highly-skilled non-EU citizens to work and live EU-wide. The EU Blue Card is valid for a period of minimum 1 year and maximum 4 years. After 4 years, the card can be renewed for another 4 years. Blue Card holders are granted the same social and labour rights as the citizens of the receiving country. Since 1st January 2014 as a result of law changes a single application procedure aims the authorization of the establishment of a legal employment relationship of the third-country nationals with a specific employer in the territory of Hungary on the basis of his application for more than ninety days. The single permit is a residence permit, which entitles the third country national to establish residence and legal employment relationship with a specific employer in the territory of Hungary.

Cases of single application procedures:

• In case the stay of the third country national submitting an application for residence permit for gainful activity aims the establishment of a legal employment relationship with a specific employer;
• In case the third-country national intends to establish a legal employment relationship, and he/she submits a residence permit application for family reunification, or submits an application for EU Blue Card;
• In case the third-country national intends to establish a legal employment relationship, and he/she is in possession of a residence permit issued for family reunification, or is in possession of an EU Blue Card.

Work permission for students from third countries:

Students from a third country carrying out regular studies in Hungary as part of a cooperation programme can pursue income earning activities full time in their term-time for a maximum of thirty hours weekly, and sixty-six working days beyond their term-time or during a period not exceeding ninety days.
