List of twin towns and sister cities in Hungary

Map of Hungary.
A sign showing Zalaegerszeg's twin towns in the city centre.

This is a list of places in Hungary having standing links to local communities in other countries. In most cases, the association, especially when formalised by local government, is known as "town twinning" (though other terms, such as "partner towns" or "sister cities" are sometimes used instead). While most of the places included are towns, the list also comprises villages, cities, districts, counties, etc. with similar links.
