Attention! Hungary reintroduces Schengen border control on the entry side from this country
Change language:
Romania will become a full member of the Schengen area from 1 January 2025. This will change the rules for crossing the common border.
Schengen border control to be reintroduced
In line with the existing practice of several EU Member States, Hungary plans to temporarily reintroduce border control on the entry side, in accordance with the rules of the Schengen Borders Code, in order to prevent threats to public order and internal security in the Schengen area, police.hu wrote.
In practice, this means that, from 1 January 2025, crossing the state border will be easier and faster than before, but in some cases, entry rights may be checked. With regard to the Schengen rules, you can only enter the country at the following border crossing points and border crossings by vehicle categories authorised on public roads.
Motorway border crossing points:
- Nagykereki
- Csanádpalota
Road border crossing points:
- Csengersima
- Vállaj
- Nyírábrány
- Létavértes
- Ártánd
