There is a total alcohol ban when driving – licenses are withdrawn if drivers are found to be under the influence of alcohol.

The pink format EU license is accepted but an International Driving Permit (IDP) is required if a green UK license is held. A car registration document and country sticker are also necessary. Third-party liability insurance is compulsory. For drivers based in Hungary for over six months, customs clearance must be sought.
