Register your trip on-line with the U.S. Embassy in this country. Millions of Americans travel abroad every year and encounter no difficulties. However, U.S. embassies and consulates assist nearly 200,000 Americans each year who are victims of crime, accident, or illness, or whose family and friends need to contact them in an emergency. When an emergency happens, or if natural disaster, terrorism, or civil unrest strikes during your foreign travel, the nearest U.S. embassy or consulate can be your source of assistance and information. By registering your trip, you help the embassy or consulate locate you when you might need them the most. Registration is voluntary and costs nothing, but it should be a big part of your travel planning and security.

What makes Budapest one of Europe's best value destinations for DFW travelers?
Budapest offers a combination that is rare in Europe — world-class architecture, history, food, nightlife, and thermal baths at prices significantly lower than Paris, London, or Amsterdam. A meal at an excellent Budapest restaurant costs a fraction of comparable Western European dining. The thermal bath culture is unique — Budapest sits on a network of natural hot springs and its historic bath houses like Szechenyi and Gellert are extraordinary experiences unlike anything in Western Europe. Hungary also uses the Hungarian Forint not the euro making it even more affordable for US dollar holders.
What documents do US citizens need to enter Hungary?
You need a valid US passport with at least 6 months validity beyond your entry date into Hungary. Once ETIAS launches you will also need a valid ETIAS authorization before boarding. At Hungarian border control you may be asked for a return flight ticket, proof of accommodation, travel insurance, and proof of sufficient funds. Hungary borders Austria, Slovakia, Ukraine, Romania, Serbia, Croatia, and Slovenia allowing easy multi-country European trips. AA Passport & Visa helps ensure your passport is current. Call 972-231-1600.
Can I combine Hungary with neighboring countries on one trip?
Yes. Hungary’s central European location makes it an excellent base for multi-country trips. Austria and Slovakia are directly accessible by train from Budapest. Vienna is just under 3 hours by rail. Bratislava in Slovakia is just over an hour. Croatia’s Lake Plitvice is reachable by car. Romania’s Transylvania is a few hours east. All these countries except Serbia and Ukraine are Schengen members so your combined 90-day Schengen allowance covers travel across all of them.
