Welcome to the homepage of the Permanent Representation of Hungary to the European Union. Our mission is to represent the government of the Republic of Hungary at the different institutions of the European Union and to ensure that the position of the Hungarian government and the Hungarian interests are brought forward at the fora of the EU. The Permanent Representation maintains cooperation on a regular basis with pertinent governmental bodies, and contributes to the shaping of Hungary's European policy.
Staff members of the PR acting in the different working groups of the Council cooperate closely with national experts to provide the basis for elaborating the Hungarian position. Following technical preparation at expert level in the working groups, issues requiring sounder approach are further discussed by the ambassadors in different formations (COREPER II, COREPER I, PSC) before being put on the agenda of the Council of Ministers', then to the European Council of heads of state and government.
You will find a short overview of the Permanent Representation hereinafter. More detailed information concerning the Representation's organization, functioning and activities can be found under items of the scrolling menu. For those who are interested in other subjects related to the European Union, we propose further useful homepages for consultation.
