  • The same page defines the single application procedure as authorising the stay together with the establishment of an employment relationship between the applicant and a specific employer [2238387302ac53ca.txt 8395:8673]; the cited sentence itself only lists the Corporate Card among the permits handled in that procedure.
  • No Corporate Card-specific employer, sponsor or eligibility condition is stated on the page. No dedicated Corporate Card factsheet exists on the official English factsheets index (https://oif.gov.hu/factsheets, fetched 2026-09-23); the Hungarian-language index could not be obtained (locale cookie and Accept-Language both returned the English page).

What are the few decisive professional characteristics of the pathway: occupation, qualifications, experience, salary, skill level, shortage status, labour-market condition or equivalent?

The checked official sources did not provide enough route-specific evidence to confirm the decisive professional requirements of this route.

What work does the permission allow? Is the holder tied to an employer, occupation or sector? Can family accompany where clearly established?

For a Corporate Card issued in the employment variant, OIF lists the route under the single application procedure. That procedure authorises residence and a contract employment relationship with a specific employer; the OIF definition of a single permit ties employment to the employer indicated on the permit. The family-reunification factsheet expressly contemplates an application by a Corporate Card holder’s family member and allows the holder’s employer to submit it with the family member’s written consent when its stated filing conditions are met. This supports a possible family application, not automatic accompanying rights. The captured authority pages do not specify a Corporate Card occupation or sector restriction for this employment variant.
