From September, you will have to pay if you want to replace your coronavirus immunity certificate, Magyar Közlöny has revealed.
If the claimant withdraws the application and then resubmits it, or has to reapply because of a gap in the application, they will still have to pay again. The regulation was issued by Gergely Gulyás, Minister of the Prime Minister’s Office, in agreement with Mihály Varga, Minister of Finance.
The cost of the certificate
Accordingly, the replacement of the immunity card will cost HUF 3000 (EUR 7.57). Of this amount, HUF 2000 (EUR 5.04) is the cost of producing the certificate, szeretlekmagyarorszag.hu reports. The money must be paid into the account of the Government Office of Budapest.
The fee must be paid even if the applicant withdraws the application, or the application is rejected by the authority or the procedure is terminated. If the application is resubmitted, the fee is to be paid again. The Regulation shall enter into force on the 31st day following its publication.
Important – only for replacement
It is important to note that in all cases, the issue of a certificate of immunity is free of charge once immunity has been obtained, 24.hu reports. The certificate is valid indefinitely. An administrative service fee is payable only when the certificate is replaced or exchanged.
