Who can initiate the registration and how?

Hungarian law stipulates that all foreign life events of a Hungarian citizen (marriage, divorce, etc.) must be registered in Hungary. You can initiate the registration of your foreign marriage if at least one of the spouses can prove their Hungarian citizenship.

Due to certain legal declarations - e.g. determination of marital name and last name of future children - the presence of both spouses is required.

Please note that appointments are required for all consular and visa matters. We cannot accept walk-in applications.

Appointments can be booked directly through our online booking system. https://konzinfobooking.mfa.gov.hu

The application can only be submitted in person. Mailed-in applications will be sent back without further consideration.

What fees are involved?

Marriage registration is free of charge.

What forms do I need to fill out?

You can find the necessary application form, with a complementary English translation, at the bottom of this page. Only the Hungarian form will be accepted.

When filling out the form, please use a blue ink pen, all CAPITAL letters, and do not sign anything in advance. You may also fill out the form electronically.

Full names must be written everywhere, in the Hungarian name order (Last name, First name, Middle name). Example: John T. Smith must be written as Smith John Thomas.

When referring to cities in the United States, please also specify the state. Do not use abbreviations.

Select option a) (mailing to Consulate) as the place of delivery of the certificate and write "Consulate General of Hungary, New York." This will allow the consular office to mail you the issued birth certificate to the U.S. address you provided.

What other supporting documents do I need to submit?

For the application, both spouses must present a government-issued valid picture ID, preferably passport.

The consular office cannot accept the application if the original foreign marriage certificate is not presented. Please note that we do not keep any original documents; we just merely have to see them.

Please note that marriage certificates that only contain the names of the spouses will be deemed insufficient. More information is required (such as DOB, place of birth, parents’ names) so the two spouses can be successfully identified, i.e. more detailed (long-form) marriage certificate or marriage license. Non-secular marriage certificates are also insufficient proof of marriage.

If a certificate was not originally issued in Hungarian, English, German, or French, we will require an official Hungarian translation by the Hungarian Office for Translation and Attestation. We also accept translations authenticated by other Hungarian consuls

Occasionally, US marriage certificates are handwritten. In such cases, a Hungarian translation may be required.

If the Hungarian spouse’s previous marital status was divorced or widowed, then a Hungarian certificate proving this fact must be presented. If the Hungarian spouse’s previous divorce has not yet been registered in Hungary, then this must first be initiated.

Why is it necessary to indicate my address in the application?

If the Hungarian spouse is not yet registered in the Hungarian Civil Registry (magyar személyiadat- és lakcímnyilvántartás), then this registration will automatically happen with the marriage registration. The consular office will mail the newly issued residential address card (lakcímkártya) to your U.S. address.

Az Európai Parlament tagjainak választásán az választó és választható, aki Magyarországon lakóhellyel rendelkezik.

Az Európai Parlament tagjainak választásán az a magyar állampolgár is választó, aki

a) Magyarországon élő, lakcímmel nem rendelkező választópolgár,

b) az Európai Unió területén kívüli lakóhellyel rendelkezik.

A választópolgár az Európai Uniónak csak egy tagállamában gyakorolhatja választójogát.

Az Európai Parlament tagjainak választása (a továbbiakban: EP választás) Magyarországon 2024. június 9-én, vasárnap kerül lebonyolításra.

A külképviseleten a magyarországi szavazás napján, helyi idő szerint 6 és 19 óra között lehet szavazni. Azokon a külképviseleteken, ahol az időeltolódás a közép-európai időhöz képest -1 vagy -2 óra, a helyi idő szerinti 6 óra és a közép-európai idő szerinti 19 óra között lehet szavazni. Az amerikai kontinensen létesített külképviseleteken a magyarországi szavazást megelőző napon (2024. június 8., szombat), helyi idő szerint 6 és 19 óra között lehet szavazni.

Ha Ön rendelkezik Magyarországon bejelentett lakóhellyel és a szavazás napján (2024. június 9-én, illetve az amerikai kontinensen 2024. június 8-án) külföldön tartózkodik, lehetősége van arra, hogy valamely magyar külképviseleten (nagykövetségen vagy főkonzulátuson vagy konzulátuson) adja le szavazatát az Európai Parlament tagjainak választásán.

Kérelmét benyújthatja május 31-ig

• online a valasztas.hu-n,

• személyesen vagy kézbesítési meghatalmazott útján bármely külképviseleten vagy magyarországi választási irodában.

A kérelem benyújtásának szabályairól részletes tájékoztatást itt talál.

Figyelem! 2024. június 9-én a külképviseleteken a helyi önkormányzati választás jelöltjeire és a nemzetiségi önkormányzati választás jelöltjeire NEM lehet szavazni, kizárólag az Európai Parlament tagjainak választásán adhatja le szavazatát.

A Magyarország területén kívül, de az Európai Unió területén lakóhellyel rendelkezők csak a lakóhelyük szerinti ország pártlistájára adhatják le szavazatukat, amennyiben ott – az adott ország szabályainak megfelelően – kérik névjegyzékbe vételüket.

Az Európai Parlament tagjainak választásán levélben szavazhatnak azok a nagykorú magyar állampolgárok, akiknek sem Magyarországon, sem az Európai Unió más tagállamában nincsen lakóhelyük.

A szavazáson való részvétel előfeltétele, hogy a választópolgár regisztráljon a központi (választói) névjegyzékbe.

Regisztrálni a szavazás napját megelőző 25. napig, tehát 2024. május 15-ig lehet online, postai úton vagy személyesen, a külképviseleteken.
