Can foreigners establish a company in Hungary?

What Changes for Foreign Shareholders?

Foreign individuals and foreign companies can own 100% of a Hungarian company. Being a foreigner is not an obstacle; what changes is the paperwork and how official mail reaches you.

• Documents issued abroad may need an apostille and a Hungarian translation
• The company needs a registered seat (székhely) in Hungary
• Foreign members and directors without a Hungarian address appoint a delivery agent
• The articles of association are drafted and countersigned by a Hungarian lawyer

Most foreign founders start with a Kft. (limited liability company). See every step in our company formation process or tell us about your case.
