Government Windows (“Kormányablak”) in Debrecen are one‑stop public administration offices where citizens can handle official paperwork quickly and conveniently. They are part of the Hajdú‑Bihar County Government Office network.

Government Windows were introduced in Hungary as part of the Magyary Program public administration reform in 2010. The idea was to create integrated service centers where citizens could access multiple administrative services in one place, instead of visiting different agencies.

In Debrecen, these offices are operated by the Hajdú‑Bihar County Government Office, and they serve as the main points of contact for residents needing official documents, registrations, or state services.

At Debrecen’s Government Windows, citizens can:

• Apply for or renew personal documents (ID cards, passports, driver’s licenses).
• Register residency changes and obtain address cards.
• Handle vehicle administration (registration, license plates, driving permits).
• Access social and family support services, including child benefits.
• Manage business‑related paperwork, permits, and licenses.
• Receive guidance on tax, health insurance, and pension administration.
