What qualifications do I need for a Hungarian EU Blue Card?

The EU Blue Card is aimed at highly qualified third-country nationals. The core requirement is an offer for a position that genuinely requires a high level of professional qualification, backed by either a recognised tertiary (higher education) qualification or qualifying professional experience.

For certain roles, such as executives and IT specialists, relevant experience can substitute for formal education, typically at least three years of relevant experience gained within the previous seven years. You also need an employment contract of at least six months for the high-qualification role.
