IMPACT – HIGH
What is the change? The Immigration Office in Budapest has announced that certain work and residence permits issued in October and November were accidentally issued with the wrong data uploaded into the permits’ biometric chips.
What does the change mean? Affected permit holders will be notified by registered mail and will be required to attend an appointment at the relevant Immigration Office, sit for fingerprints and photo and wait approximately two weeks for a new permit.
BAL Analysis: Employees and family members who were issued permits in October or November last year should be aware that they may have incorrect data in their permits and will be notified if their permits are among those that need to be replaced.
This alert has been provided by the BAL Global Practice group and our network provider located in Hungary. For additional information, please contact your BAL attorney.
