The Hungarian government has announced that only up to 65,000 guest worker permits and employment residence permits can be issued in 2024. This is significantly lower than the quota of 81,000 which could have been allowed, based on the average number of vacant positions over the previous four quarters.
The government has also defined a list of approximately 300 occupations for which guest worker permits cannot be issued.
