Hungary: visa decisions in Azerbaijan
| Year | Applications | Visas issued | Refused | Refusal rate | Multiple-entry share |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2023 | 6,053 | 5,236 | 817 | 13.5% | 31.2% |
| 2024 | 5,366 | 4,362 | 1,004 | 18.7% | 30.4% |
| 2025 | 6,717 | 5,654 | 1,036 | 15.5% | 39.1% |
In 2025, Hungary’s embassy and consulates in Azerbaijan (Baku) received 6,717 applications for short-stay Schengen visas and issued 5,654. 15.5% of applications were refused. In 2024 it had been 18.7%: the rate fell by 3.2 points. Applications rose by 25% compared with 2024 (5,366).
For comparison, all Schengen states together refused 9.8% of the applications lodged in Azerbaijan that year, from 3.0% at the consulates of Greece to 26.1% at those of Bulgaria. Hungary’s consulates worldwide refused 13.0%. Hungary was the 4th most applied-for Schengen state in Azerbaijan.
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 Azerbaijan, by any nationality: mostly citizens, but also residents from other countries.
