Frequently asked questions

Do I need to apply for anything before I travel to Greece?

No — with a Hungary passport, you don't need to apply for a visa or authorisation before flying to Greece. Just make sure your passport itself is valid and, if you have one, bring proof of your onward or return travel in case you're asked.

Can I extend my stay in Greece once I'm there?

Only in limited circumstances, and not simply to keep travelling. You must apply before your current permission expires, and where a fee applies it is €30. Only up to the 90-days-in-180 ceiling. Going beyond it requires force majeure, and the resulting sticker is usually valid only in the country that issued it. Free where the grounds are force majeure or humanitarian. The €30 applies to serious personal reasons, or to an entry delayed through no fault of your own. Apply to the immigration authority of the Schengen state you are currently in — not the consulate that issued the visa — before your visa expires. An expired visa cannot be extended. If you know in advance you need longer than 90 days, the route is a national long-stay (Type D) visa, applied for from outside the Schengen Area before you travel.

Is the information on this page guaranteed to be accurate?

We check what we publish against official sources where we can, and clearly flag anything still pending verification. Even so, visa rules change — sometimes with very little notice — so please treat this page as a strong starting point, not a final word, and confirm directly with the official source linked above before you book or fly.

Before you travel — checklist

  • Check your passport has enough remaining validity for your trip to Greece — many countries require at least 6 months beyond your travel dates, even for visa-free entry.
  • Check whether Greece requires proof of onward or return travel — some border officers ask for this even when it isn't formally listed as a requirement.
  • Consider travel insurance that covers your trip to Greece, particularly if any medical or emergency evacuation coverage is required or advisable for the region.
  • This page's details for Greece are still pending full verification — confirm everything directly with an official government source before finalising your plans.

Visa rules change — sometimes with very little notice. This page reflects our best information as of 2026, but if you're reading this later than that, treat it as a starting point rather than the final word, and always confirm with the official source above before you travel.
