Corporate Immigration Management in Detail
Outsourced Aliens Policing Department in Your Company
Due to the tightness of the Hungarian labor market, involving foreign workforce is inevitable for companies. However, this poses a significant administrative burden and legal risk for HR departments. First Immigration takes this burden off your shoulders: we act as your company's outsourced immigration expert.
Differentiated Solutions (The "Toolbox") We do not believe in templates. We assign the most optimal legal tool to every position, based on cost and time-efficiency criteria:
-
For Graduate Experts: Administration of the EU Blue Card or Hungarian Card, focusing on family and retention.
-
For Skilled Workers / Blue-collar Staff: Utilizing the National Card (in relation to Serbia, Ukraine, etc.), which is exempt from the labor market test and allows for an accelerated procedure.
Compliance and Risk Management Employment of foreigners involves strict notification and record-keeping obligations. In case of default, the company may face serious fines or exclusion from public procurements. We not only obtain the permit but audit processes, handle mandatory notifications, and monitor expirations, guaranteeing the company's "clean slate" before the authorities.
Comprehensive Management of Corporate Risks (Compliance)
Why do HR directors choose First Immigration? Because we take responsibility.
1. Zero Tolerance for Fines
Employing third-country nationals involves strict notification obligations. In case of default, fines can be in the millions. We audit processes and handle authority notifications, guaranteeing the company's "clean slate".
2. Dedicated Account Manager & Reporting
Forget call centers. Every corporate partner gets a dedicated expert known by name, who knows the company's internal processes. We send regular status reports on ongoing cases, so HR is always up-to-date.
3. Preliminary Risk Analysis (Pre-Screening)
We do not start uncertain cases. Even before the contract conclusion, we screen the candidates' documents. If we see a risk (e.g., suspicion of a forged diploma, prior ban), we signal it immediately, sparing the company unnecessary costs and loss of prestige.

Our Partners
We have optimized our service for three main corporate segments:

-
Production and Manufacturing Companies: Recruitment of large-scale manual workforce from third countries, utilizing the advantages of the National Card.
-
Recruitment and Staffing Agencies: Who handle recruitment but would entrust the legal-administrative "heavy lifting" to an expert partner.
The role of First Immigration: We are the bridge between the HR department and the Immigration Authority. You select the candidate, and we ensure they enter the factory gate or office legally as soon as possible.

-
Cost reduction: The cost and time loss of restarting due to incorrectly submitted or rejected applications are eliminated.
-
Workforce retention: We increase foreign employee loyalty through seamless family reunification administration.
Corporate Cooperation Model
Project Framing
We assess the headcount to be brought in and the nationalities involved. We determine the most effective permit type (e.g., National Card vs. Blue Card) for the given project.
Risk Screening
Even before the contract conclusion, we screen the candidates' documents. We filter out those whose applications would likely be rejected, saving time for the company.
Documentation Management
We prepare the corporate and employee documents. In the case of large headcounts, we organize group appointment bookings and coordinated submission at the consulates.
Proactive Communication
We maintain contact with the administrators of the OIF (Immigration Authority) and the Government Office. We react immediately to deficiency letters to speed up the process.
Authorized Start of Work
After the handover of the cards, we perform the mandatory authority notifications. We inform HR about the expiry dates of the permits to ensure the planning of renewals.
Questions About Corporate Service
Q1: Do you also handle recruitment? No. First Immigration is strictly an immigration legal and relocation expert company. We do not search for candidates; we solve the problem of ensuring that the candidate you have found (whether Filipino, Indian, or Ukrainian) can legally start work.
Q2: How long does it take for the employee to arrive? This depends on the nationality and the permit type. From strategic countries (e.g., Serbia, Ukraine - National Card), the procedure can run its course in as little as 3-4 weeks. For those arriving from Asian countries with a general permit, it is worth calculating 2-3 months.
Q3: Can you help with the accommodation of employees? Yes. Through our relocation division, we assist in finding worker accommodations or renting managerial apartments, and in the legal verification of lease agreements, which is essential for address registration.
Q4: What happens if the employee leaves? We handle "offboarding" as well. The validity of the residence permit ceases with the end of the employment relationship. We assist in the official deregistration and the closing of employer obligations so that no legal risk remains with the company.
