Residence permit visa for staying more than 90 days
Every foreign citizen who stays in Hungary for more than 90 days is required to obtain a Hungarian residence permit except for EU and EEA nationals. Hungary issues different types of residence permits based on the purpose of residence (e.g. employment, study, research, family reunification, medical treatment, etc.).
You can only submit your application for residence permit visa at the Embassy of Hungary in Kuala Lumpur if you are a citizen of Malaysia or you are a citizen of another country but you legally reside in Malaysia on a valid long-term pass. If there is no Hungarian consulate in the country of your nationality or habitual residence, the visa application can be submitted at any Hungarian consulate.
All applications for residence permit visa are processed by the Hungarian immigration office, the National Directorate-General for Aliens Policing.
