On November 17, 2008, Hungary joined the Visa Waiver Program. After the long-awaited ease in the process, Hungarian travelers can apply and get an electronic authorization in 72 hours, free of charge.
Figures by USDOC/ITA’s TI Net statistics show that the United States is attracting more visitors from Hungary again. After reaching nearly 60,000 in 2000, arrivals from Hungary plunged to about 32,000 in 2003, in the wake of 9/11. But the trend is now reversing.
