Hungarian passport

Hungarian passports are issued to Hungarian citizens for international travel by The Central Data Processing, Registration and Election Office of the Hungarian Ministry of the Interior. Every Hungarian citizen is also a citizen of the European Union. The passport, besides the national identity card allows for free rights of movement and residence in any of the states of the European Union, European Economic Area and Switzerland.
Physical appearance.
As of 2020, regular Hungarian EU passports are burgundy red in colour (before a navy blue color was in use), with the Hungarian coat of arms emblazoned in the center of the front cover. The words "útlevél" ("passport", or more literally, "Roadletter") inscribed below the coat of arms and "Európai Unió" ("European Union"), "Magyarország" ("Hungary") above. The new biometric Hungarian passport has the standard biometric symbol at the bottom.
The visa pages have musical notes of the Szózat visible in UV light. The identity information page contains the title and the first eight lines of the National Anthem in the author's handwriting embossed.
Identity information page.
The Hungarian passport includes the following data:
The information page ends with the Machine Readable Zone. This zone contains most of the above information, but readable by a computer through a camera. The names will have all letters converted to the range A-Z. OE will be used for Ö and Ő, and UE will be used for Ü and Ű, and for other letters marks like ´ are stripped.
Languages.
The data page/information page is printed in Hungarian, English and French; translation in all other official languages of the E.U. is present elsewhere in the passport.
Visa free travel.
Visa requirements for Hungarian citizens are administrative entry restrictions by the authorities of other states placed on citizens of Hungary. Hungarian citizens had visa-free or visa on arrival access to 182 countries and territories, ranking the Hungarian passport 10th in terms of travel freedom according to the Henley Passport Index.
Diplomatic passport visa requirements.
A Hungarian ordinary passport, with visa-free access to all of the world's developed countries, is a very convenient travel document by international standards. However, it is not as handy as a Hungarian diplomatic passport, which has even fewer visa restrictions attached to it. Several countries offer visa-free access to holders of a Hungarian diplomatic passport, but not to ordinary passport holders. This is notably the case with China (since 1992), Russia (since 2001). and India (since 2003). As of July 2009, Hungarian diplomats can enter all G8+5 countries without a visa. The Hungarian diplomatic passport holds the distinction of being the only travel document in the world granting such visa-free entry to all G8+5 member states.
