HELPERS offers the most comprehensive, full-service business and immigration solutions on the Hungarian market. Most of our services are priced as convenient packages, including everything you will need in order to achieve your goals in Hungary.
Our company formation, business / investment immigration packages, translation fees and hourly rates are formulated in a way that makes them cost-effective and affordable while enabling us to provide you top-notch service. Read our rate cards below, and contact us for a tailored quote!

In addition to everything in the Essential package, you get the following:
In addition to everything in the Standard package, you get the following:
This package is ideal for foreign business-owners who want to take advantage of an English-speaking accounting team from Day 1 of the company’s operation and make sure that the company remains compliant with local tax regulations even while there is little activity.

Accounting rates are based on your company’s business activity and volume, although all our packages include the work of an English-speaking, certified accountant, representation at the tax authority in case of inspections, and liability insurance to cover potential accounting errors. Some activities may be considered high-risk and incur higher accounting fees. At the same time, we do our best to offer cost effective solutions to clients and will be happy to work with your staff to share the workload in an optimal way.

Premium business plans and market research projects are priced based on a list of research questions and objectives provided by the client before the start. We understand that with all the costs of launching a new business or project, it can be difficult to allocate funds for market research and the temptation can be great to reduce cost by finding ‘free’ information through internet search or informal sources. In our experience, however, such short-cuts rarely pay off, and therefore we will try and work with you to meet your budget while also providing the essential information and contacts you need.
Business plans for residency application: EUR 800-1200 (+VAT if applicable)

Eligibility Consultation only: USD 200 (+ 27% VAT if applicable). Deductible from the citizenship application package
We check whether you are eligible based on your knowledge about your ancestry, and whether the documents you have are sufficient.

Citizenship Application Package: individual pricing, starting from USD 2,600 (+ 27% VAT if applicable)
We check whether you are eligible based on your knowledge about your ancestry, and whether the documents you have are sufficient.

We prepare your application package (documents you have to submit upon application), help you decide where to apply and how to book an appointment. We provide full support from step 1 to receiving your citizenship.
Hungarian Language Lessons (online or offline) Specifically for Citizenship Interview (if needed)
We work with language teachers specialized in preparing you for the citizenship interview, and offer tailored preparatory courses on- or off-line (with a usual maximum of 25 lessons required).
