Schengen Arrivals (Typically Terminal 2A)

  1. After landing, follow the airport signs for Arrivals and proceed into the terminal toward the main passenger flow.
  2. If your flight arrives within the Schengen Area, you usually won’t pass passport control; continue straight to Baggage Claim.
  3. In the baggage reclaim hall (airside), collect your luggage. Before you exit, look around the carousel zone for “ATM” signage and the orange cash machines near the carousels.
  4. If you prefer to withdraw cash after exiting baggage reclaim, continue to the exit into the public Arrivals hall (landside).
  5. Once in the public Arrivals hall, slow down and scan for ATM signage near the waiting/meeting area and the main exit doors.
  6. If the first ATM is busy, walk along the public Arrivals corridor toward the central connector between Terminal 2A and Terminal 2B; more ATMs are typically positioned along this shared arrivals zone.
  7. Withdraw Hungarian forints (HUF) if possible, then head outside to taxis, buses, shuttles, and pick-up lanes.

Non-Schengen Arrivals (Typically Terminal 2B)

  1. After landing, follow signs to Arrivals and then to Passport Control / Immigration.
  2. Clear passport control and continue toward Baggage Claim.
  3. In the baggage reclaim hall (airside), collect your luggage. Look near the carousels for ATM signage and orange-colored cash machines.
  4. Proceed to Customs and follow the exit flow into the public Arrivals hall (landside).
  5. In the public Arrivals hall, check near the driver/greeter waiting area and the main exit doors for additional ATMs.
  6. If you can’t find one immediately, walk along the public corridor toward the connector between 2B and 2A, following ATM signage.
  7. Withdraw cash before you go outside; it’s usually easier than searching after you’ve reached the curbside lanes.

Connecting / Departing (SkyCourt ATM)

  1. If you are already airside (past security) and need cash, walk into the SkyCourt area (the main hub between Terminal 2A and Terminal 2B).
  2. Head toward the side closer to Terminal 2A and look under the escalators.
  3. You should find an ATM positioned in this SkyCourt escalator zone—useful for last-minute cash before heading to gates.

Quick BUD Landmarks That Mean You’re Close

  • Arrivals (Landside): If you can see the big flow of people meeting drivers and the main sliding doors to the outside pick-up lanes, you are within the easiest ATM zone.
  • Baggage Claim (Airside): If you are standing by the baggage carousels, check the perimeter walls and walkway lanes for ATMs before you exit.
  • SkyCourt: If you see the main escalators connecting levels in the central shopping/food hub, check underneath them on the side leading toward Terminal 2A.

Use the map below to find the nearest ATMs and banks near Budapest Ferenc Liszt Airport (BUD), especially if you can’t use the ATMs inside the airport or prefer to withdraw cash outside the airport.

ATM Withdrawal Tips & Advice for Budapest Ferenc Liszt Airport (BUD)

  • Prioritize landside Arrivals ATMs if you need cash for transport: The easiest place to withdraw is the public Arrivals halls (Terminal 2A/2B) right before you go outside to taxis, buses, and pick-up lanes.
  • Use the baggage-claim ATMs only if lines are short: There are ATMs in the baggage reclaim halls, but if many passengers arrive at once, the public Arrivals hall machines are often faster because there are multiple points along the corridor.
  • Expect airport ATMs to be busy right after a wave of arrivals: If you see a queue, walk 1–2 minutes along the shared Arrivals corridor between 2A and 2B—you’ll often find another ATM with fewer people.
  • Watch for “ATM” signage and orange machines: Many airport cash machines are visually similar (often orange) and are placed near high-traffic service zones (waiting halls, exits, and corridor junctions).
  • Decline Dynamic Currency Conversion (DCC) if you see it: If the ATM offers to charge you in your home currency, choose the option that charges in HUF (Hungarian forint). DCC at airports can be expensive.
  • Check the on-screen surcharge before confirming: At BUD, some ATMs may add an operator fee. The screen should show it before you finalize. If the fee looks high, cancel and try another machine in the same hall.
  • Withdraw in one larger transaction if fees are high: If you notice a fixed operator surcharge, it can be cheaper to do one larger withdrawal rather than multiple small ones—especially if you’re paying both an ATM fee and a card issuer fee.
  • Keep an eye on nearby FX/ATM operators: Some ATMs are associated with currency exchange operators. If you’re fee-sensitive, compare the on-screen terms and consider using a different ATM cluster in another hall.
  • Have a card backup before you land: If one network is down (temporary outages happen), having a second debit card (or a card from a different network) can save time at the airport.
  • Don’t wait until you’re already curbside: While there can be ATMs outside, it’s usually calmer and easier to use the indoor Arrivals hall ATMs before you step into the busy taxi/bus pick-up lanes.
  • Plan for small cash needs first: Budapest is card-friendly, and airport transport options often accept cards, so you may only need a smaller amount at BUD and can withdraw more later in the city at bank-owned ATMs.
  • If you’re connecting, use the SkyCourt ATM before walking to gates: Once you’re airside, the SkyCourt escalator zone ATM is the most convenient “last chance” cash point before a long gate walk.

FAQs – Budapest Ferenc Liszt Airport (BUD) ATMs

Are there ATMs at Budapest Ferenc Liszt Airport (BUD)?
Yes. BUD has multiple cash withdrawal points (ATMs) across Terminal 2A, Terminal 2B, and SkyCourt, including ATMs in baggage claim areas and in the public Arrivals halls.

Are BUD airport ATMs open 24 hours?
Most ATMs at BUD are available 24/7, although individual machines can occasionally be out of service or temporarily unavailable.

Where is the easiest ATM to find right after arrival?
The simplest ATMs to find are typically in the public Arrivals halls (landside) in Terminal 2A and Terminal 2B, near the waiting/meeting areas and close to the main exit doors.

Can I withdraw cash before leaving the secured area (airside)?
Yes. There are ATMs in the baggage reclaim halls (before you enter the public Arrivals area), and there is also an ATM in the SkyCourt area when you are airside.

Do ATMs at BUD charge extra fees?
Some ATMs may apply an operator surcharge in addition to any fee your bank charges. The ATM should display the fee on-screen before you confirm the withdrawal.

What currency should I withdraw at BUD airport ATMs?
Hungary’s currency is the Hungarian forint (HUF). If the ATM asks whether to charge you in your home currency, choosing HUF typically avoids expensive dynamic currency conversion.

Is it better to withdraw cash at the airport or in the city?
If you only need cash for immediate arrival needs, airport ATMs are convenient. If you want to minimize fees, many travelers prefer withdrawing later in Budapest at bank-owned ATMs, depending on your card and your bank’s fee policy.

What should I do if an ATM declines my card at BUD?
Try a different ATM cluster (2A vs 2B Arrivals halls), ensure your card supports international withdrawals, and use a second card/network if you have one. If multiple machines fail, consider withdrawing at a nearby town/shopping area (e.g., Vecsés) or using card payment until you reach the city.
