Abstract
Aim: The aim of this paper is to present - in addition to the preambles of the legislation on alien policy from 1903 to the present day - the preamble of Act XC of 2023 on the General Rules for the Entry and Residence of Third-Country Nationals.
Methodology: This study considers the practice of the specifications of the preambles of the legislations on the entry and residence of foreigners, and compares, according to grammatical and logical criteria, the certain sentences of the introductory text of Act XC of 2023 on the General Rules for the Entry and Residence of Third-Country Nationals with the normative provisions of this Act and other legislations, in particular the Fundamental Law of Hungary.
Findings: The preamble of Act XC of 2023 on the General Rules for the Entry and Residence of Third-Country Nationals introduces the normative provisions of the Act with an unusual content compared to the legislation so far. This content cannot, however, be examined in isolation, but only in the light of the specific legal provisions (constitutional, statutory, regulatory) establishing rights and obligations.
Value: The value of the study is to draw attention to the fact that in the system of legislation, only the specific provisions of individual pieces of legislation have normative force, and that the texts and preambles introducing individual pieces of legislation can contribute to the interpretation of these legislative provisions.
