What to Expect When Moving to Hungary
Hungary, located in Central Europe, is a country that prides itself on offering a high quality of living to its residents while providing a great deal of protection to its natural resources and environment. Hungary has been home to a number of different inventors whose inventions have served millions of consumers worldwide over the last two centuries, such as the first electric generator, Ford Model T and the first artificial vitamin C. Having overcome years as a communist country, Hungary currently has a Parliamentary Republic. Hungary’s economy is supported by a number of different industries, including tourism, renewable energy systems, luxury vehicles and technology. The currency in Hungary is the Forint (HUF), however, there has been talk that they will transition to the Euro like the majority of the countries in the European Union (which they are a part of). For now, the Forint still stands. If you have any questions regarding how and when to exchange your money for Hungarian currency, contact your relocations specialist at NY International Shipping. They can provide valuable insight into how to handle this matter efficiently. The official language in Hungary is Hungarian. If you do not already know Hungarian, NY International Shipping strongly suggests you study at least a few conversation phrases to make the transition after moving to Hungary as smooth and comfortable as possible.
Budapest is the capital of Hungary and it is split into two different sections—Buda and Pest. Buda contains 6 districts which tend to be more quiet and residential, while Pest contains 16 districts which vary from residential to urban and bustling. Because Hungary is a part of the European Union, citizens of other countries that belong to the European Union will not be required to obtain a visa prior to moving to Hungary, however, everyone else will. It is a good idea to consult your local Hungarian Consulate to discuss the different types of visas available. Once you have determined which visa best suits your purpose in moving to Hungary, it is a good idea to apply for your visa as soon as possible. Make sure you give yourself plenty of time as processing your visa can take quite a long time.
