Check your Hungaryvisa application status.

For study, Hungary issues a residence permit for the purpose of studies with a D-type entry visa. The National Directorate-General for Aliens Policing decides it in Hungary ¹. You lodge the application at a Hungarian mission in your country of nationality or habitual residence, and you do not need a separate visa application ¹. The decision is due within 60 days of submission, with a 15-day procedural administration period. Time spent fixing missing documents is not counted ¹.

Where Bangladeshis go

The Dhaka Office of the Embassy of Hungary in New Delhi is at Concord I-K Tower, Plot 2, Block CEN(A), North Avenue / Madani Avenue, Dhaka 1212, and reception is by appointment only ³. Hours are Monday to Wednesday 09:30 to 12:30 and 13:30 to 16:30, and Sunday 09:30 to 12:30 ³. The supervising mission is the Embassy of Hungary in New Delhi ³. The Dhaka Office contact is consulate.dac@mfa.gov.hu ².

We could not confirm that the Dhaka Office accepts study applications. The embassy's D-visa page says appointments go to appointment.del@mfa.gov.hu and that applications for residents of India, Bhutan, the Maldives, Nepal and Sri Lanka are lodged at the VFS office in New Delhi. It does not name Bangladesh ². Ask the Dhaka Office which route applies to you.

Documents

The student permit factsheet lists ¹:

• a certificate of admission from the educational institution and a document verifying student status
• proof of the language knowledge needed for the studies
• proof of payment of tuition fees
• proof of subsistence: a bank statement, notarised family support declaration, employer or tax document, or scholarship certificate
• proof of health insurance or the ability to cover health costs
• a valid passport and a ticket or funds for travel out of Hungary
• one facial photograph
• the completed form, with a real Hungarian accommodation address declared

After approval

An approved D visa from an application lodged abroad is single entry, allows a stay of no more than 30 days, and is valid for 3 months ¹. The student residence permit is mailed to the educational establishment, and its validity is at least 1 year and at most 3 years ¹.

Employment D visas are a different matter

Under Government Decree 450/2024, employment D visas may be approved only for citizens of listed countries. The embassy says Bangladesh is not among them and will not give appointments for employment D visas for an indefinite period ². Study is not mentioned as affected ².

Checking your case

The embassy does not answer emails about the status of a D visa case, because the Hungarian aliens policing authority decides and the embassy tells clients when the decision arrives ². If you want to appeal, you must do so within 8 calendar days, only at the competent Hungarian mission ².

The embassy names no tracker. The VFS Global tracker for Hungary asks for two things: the application reference number, from your VFS receipt, and your last name as in your passport ⁴. It also asks you to type a security image ⁴. The pages we read do not confirm a VFS centre in Dhaka for Hungary, so the tracker may not find your case ². The embassy decides, not VFS, so a "ready for collection" message is not an approval ². A reply of "The verification words are incorrect." means you typed the security image wrongly ⁴. "Invalid Inputs." means VFS rejected the format, so copy the number exactly as printed on the receipt ⁴. Messages about no matching record mean it found nothing for those details ⁴.

If you hold a VFS receipt, keep the reference number and your passport surname ready for the status check on this page.
