The fee for the extension of the residence permit is 23 000 HUF, which will be paid by the applicant directly to the Immigration Service through the online interface with a bank card accepted by the Authority.

As the Registrar's Office points out, the application can be submitted up to 40 days before the expiry of the validity of the residence permit. If the validity period of the residence permit is shorter than 40 days, it is necessary to contact the colleguae of the Administration (enterhungary1@aok.pte.hu), before submitting the application. It is important that the Administration cannot provide the service to applicants with an expired residence permit.

These documents must be attached to the application:

ID photo (passport photo);

enough);

  • how many active semesters the student has in the given course, and which semesters are these,
  • the student has paid the fees charged by the higher education institution,
  • proof of housing (signed dormitory or lease agreement) and address card;
  • the currently valid residence permit.

 

After all documents have been received, the Administration will fill the necessary data and prepare the student's request to submission on the Enter Hungary interface within 4 working days. After that, the applicant must appear in person at the Registrar’s Office for the purpose of data reconciliation and signature. The request for the extension of the student's residence permit can only be submitted with the personal appearance of the student.

It is emphasized that in the absence of a personal appearance, the application cannot be sent to the Authority. The applicants have to wait until an administrative officer contacts them for the appointment.

After submission, the applicant must appear in person at the Immigration Service's customer service within 15 days. The card will only be received by post, to the student's postal address.
