Can you work on this route?
Route-specific work rights and conditions stay separate from shortage-list status and individual eligibility.
| Route | Published work answer | Official source |
|---|---|---|
| Hungary permanent residence card | The same official text says third-country employment generally requires an appropriate residence status or, in certain cases, a work permit, and that only some residence permits entitle the holder to work; the permanent-status exception is therefore kept separate from temporary employment permits and from regulated-profession recognition. | Official source |
| Hungary permanent residence card | The official Hungarian county government office booklet states that, in the listed cases, a separate work permit is not required where a person has immigrant or permanent residence status; this records the status-level effect for the permanent-residence route, not an individual approval. | Official source |
