Hungary: visa decisions in Argentina
| Year | Applications | Visas issued | Refused | Refusal rate | Multiple-entry share |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2024 | 14 | 12 | 2 | – | – |
| 2025 | 24 | 23 | 1 | 4.0% | 52.2% |
In 2025, Hungary’s embassy and consulates in Argentina (Buenos Aires) received 24 applications for short-stay Schengen visas and issued 23. 4.0% of applications were refused. Applications rose by 71% compared with 2024 (14).
For comparison, all Schengen states together refused 11.1% of the applications lodged in Argentina that year. Hungary’s consulates worldwide refused 13.0%. Hungary was the 9th most applied-for Schengen state in Argentina.
You apply to the Schengen state that is your main destination (the longest stay or the main purpose; the state of first entry only when there is none), so a lower rate elsewhere is no reason to apply there. The figures cover applications lodged in Argentina, by any nationality: mostly citizens, but also residents from other countries.
