ISLAMABAD – Pakistani citizens are required to obtain the Type C Schengen visa in order to explore Hungary as a tourist.
Schengen States issue uniform visa for short stay visit not exceeding 90 days in any 180-days period. If your travel destination is only Hungary – or in case Lithuania/Estonia – the Hungarian Embassy in Islamabad is the competent authority to process the visa application.
“The traveler may be requested to provide a proof of the existence of the conditions of his/her entry and stay in Hungary and, if he/she is not able to fulfill this, he may be returned from the border,” read the information available on embassy’s website.
Hungary is a gem in Central Europe when it comes to tourism. It offers a rich mix of history, architecture, thermal spas, natural beauty, and a thriving food and wine scene—all at relatively affordable prices.
