A C-type Schengen visa might have to be obtained for your Researcher before he enters Hungary, depending on his third-country citizenship. Annex I of "Regulation (EU) 2018/1806 of the European Parliament and of the Council" lists those countries whose citizens are required to obtain C-type Schengen visa before entering the Schengen area (including Hungary) for not more than 90 days within any consecutive 180 days.
Annex II of this Regulation lists those countries whose citizens are exempt from C-type Schengen visa obtainment and able to enter and stay in the territory of Schengen (including Hungary) for not more than 90 days. In case of travelling regularly in and out of travel of the Schengen area, the number of the days spent in the Schengen area has to be added up and the mentioned 90-day stay limit has to be understood as the sum of the days spent in the Schengen within any consecutive 180 days.
Although if a Researcher's citizenship is indicated in the Annex I, obtaining C-type Schengen visa might not be needed (e.g., the Researcher already has a valid C-type Schengen visa or a valid Residence Permit issued by a Schengen Country).
If C-type Schengen Visa is required, we help your Researcher obtain this document according to the description below.
