Oath of Allegiance
Persons becoming naturalised Hungarian citizens are expected to take an Oath of Allegiance as follows:
- "I, (name), do solemnly promise that I shall consider Hungary my country. I shall be a loyal citizen of the Republic of Hungary, and shall honour and observe the Constitution and laws thereof. I shall defend my country as far as my strength allows, and shall serve it according to the best of my abilities allow."
Those who prefer may take an equivalent solemn promise instead of an oath.
