Hungarian football clubs have participated in European association football competitions (UEFA Champions League/European Cup, Europa League/UEFA Cup/Inter-Cities Fairs Cup, and defunct UEFA Cup Winners Cup) since their inception in 1955, when MTK, Vasas SC and Budapest Honvéd FC played in the inaugural Inter-Cities Fairs Cup.

The only Hungarian club to have won a major European trophy is Ferencváros, having defeated Juventus 1–0 in Turin to lift the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup 1964-65.^[2][3]

Teams representing Hungary's NB I have reached the final of a major European competition on six separate occasions, with Ferencváros having done so thrice, thus being the only multiple time finalist, and the only team to reach the final in different competitions. Hungarian football clubs appearing in major European finals, in chronological order:

During the historical European Cup era, three clubs succeeded in reaching the semi-final stage of the competition, each on one occasion. In the 1957-58 season Vasas Budapest; in the 1964-65 season Győr; and in the 1973-74 season Újpest.

In the modern Champions League era, under the current format, Hungarian clubs have qualified for the group stage on three separate occasions: Ferencváros twice, in the 1995-96 then 2020-21 seasons,^[4] as well as Debrecen in the 2009–10 season.

Ferencváros finished at the top of their group in the 2022–23 UEFA Europa League, resulting in their progress into the knockout phase, marking the first time since Vidi's defeat at the hands of Real Madrid in the 1985 UEFA Cup Final that a Hungarian club has reached the latter portion of a major European tournament.

As of 8 August 2018.

For the 2023–24 UEFA competitions, the associations will be allocated places according to their 2022 UEFA country coefficients, which will take into account their performance in European competitions from 2017–18 to 2021–22. In the 2022 rankings that will be used for the 2023–24 European competitions, Hungary's coefficient points total is 16.375. After earning a score of 2.750 during the 2021–22 European campaign, Hungary is ranked by UEFA as the 27th best association in Europe out of 55.
