Hanna Bátki, lawyer – expert in immigration law

More than a decade of commitment to immigration law

For more than ten years, I have been working exclusively as a lawyer in the field of immigration law. It was a conscious professional decision to devote my entire practice to legal issues related to the residence, employment, and settlement of foreigners in Hungary.

I am convinced that this is the only way to ensure genuine professional experience, up-to-date knowledge, and the reliability that clients rightly expect from a lawyer in this specialized field of law.

Outstanding experience – thousands of successfully handled cases

Looking back on 2026, I can say that I have successfully handled more than 8,000 Hungarian visa, residence, and settlement permit cases.

In my work, I have dealt with:

• individual and family residence permits,
• long-term settlement procedures,
• as well as large-volume work residence permits for corporate clients.

In recent years, there has been hardly a significant industrial investment in Hungary in which I have not been involved as a lawyer in meeting the foreign human resource needs. Numerous large companies have relied on me to prepare and carry out the legal employment of foreign workers in Hungary.

Security and predictability in a constantly changing legal environment

Hungarian migration and foreigners’ law is one of the most frequently amended areas of law. The greatest professional challenge for me is to provide security and predictability for my clients in this constantly changing, difficult to follow legal environment.

My goal is to ensure that my clients understand their legal situation, are aware of their options and expected deadlines, and can count on stable, lawful solutions for the long term during their stay in Hungary.

Reliability, continuous development, client-centered approach

Based on feedback from my clients, I believe that my work is characterized by reliability, a high level of professional competence, and a practical approach.

I am convinced that there is always work to be done and reasons to continuously educate myself in the field of immigration law, as this is the only way I can provide my clients with the legal security they need.

My personal journey

My dedication to the legal profession stems from my mother, who was a lawyer, the chief legal counsel of one of Hungary’s largest agricultural companies, and is currently a notary public. It was from her that I learned the values of the legal profession, dedication to the practice of law, and the ability to work with clients. The practice of law requires continuous development, research, and learning. I practice my profession accordingly, so that I can always provide my clients with the appropriate legal services.
