TL;DR Summary

The United States has imposed travel restrictions on citizens of Hungary due to concerns over the verification of nearly 1 million foreigners granted Hungarian passports over a nine-year period. Hungarian passport holders will now have their travel validity period reduced from two years to one year and will be limited to a single entry into the United States. The restrictions apply to the U.S. Visa Waiver Program, and Hungary is the only country among the 40 participating states to face such restrictions. The move follows failed attempts by the U.S. to address security concerns with Hungary's government.
