You may submit an application for a passport or an ID card (travel document) the following ways:
- at a ‘kormányablak’ or
- at an ‘okmányiroda’
The duration of the procedure is 8-20 days (provided the application is complete). Should you apply for a passport in Hungary (with the delivery/collection also being in Hungary), you have the opportunity to do so using a fast track service (lasting 1, 3 or 5 days depending on your choice) for extra charge.
If you apply for your travel document in Hungary, you may opt for its collection abroad:
- in case of passports by paying the consular administration fee at the consular office at the time of collection;
- in case of ID cards, there is no additional fee involved.
If you are outside Hungary, you may submit your application for a travel document at a consular office abroad.
Documents for personal collection are usually available within 20-40 days from the date of submission in London. Fast track service is not available.
Apart from London you can submit your application in the British Isles at the following Hungarian consular offices (Please click on the relevant city below):
The online submission of applications related to travel documents is possible only in a very limited number of cases – these are the following: reporting and replacing a lost/stolen/destroyed travel document or applying for a secondary passport.
