In case of visit Denmark:

Visa for family members of EU/EEA citizens

Please note as of 1 January 2019, third-country family members of Hungarian citizens have been excluded from the scope of Act I of 2007 on the Entry and Residence of Persons with the Right of Free Movement and Residence (Szmtv.) and its implementing decree (Szmvhr.) and have been transferred to the scope of Act II of 2007 on the Entry and Residence of Third-Country Nationals (Harmtv.) and its implementing decree (Harmvhr.).

As a result, the possibility of the so-called visitor visa for family members of Hungarian citizens has been removed.

It is important to underline that third-country family members of EEA nationals (non-Hungarian EEA nationals) are not covered by this provision. They can still apply for a visitor visa.

To apply for a visitor visa the visa applicant must be a certified EEA family member (they need to prove this with birth or marriage certificate issued by EEA country) and the applicant needs to exercise the right of free movement, meaning the applicant travels with their EEA family member, but not to the country of their permanent residence.

Length of the visa process

The length of the process depends on many different factors. As a general rule, the maximum time a Schengen visa process can take is 15 days. If necessary, the consul may extend this period of time.

Submission of an appeal

In case of a visa refusal, the applicant may lodge an appeal with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade of Hungary (MFAT) to seek annulment of the decision by means of a petition to be handed over personally to the Consular Section of the Hungarian Embassy or to the BLS International within 8 days after notification (by phone/ by mail/personally) of the refusal. The appeal has no special form and formalities but must be dated and signed by the appellate. The MFAT will review the application and make a decision. The fee of the appeal is 180 USD for C- and D-type visa cases.
