Financial assistance available from the Foundation normally covers the costs of translation after the book has been published through the Hungarian Book Foundation. The deadlines for application are 31^st March and 31^st October each year.

b, A Magyar Műfordítóház (Hungarian House for Literary Translation) gives four-, six- and eight-week scholarships for foreign translators that convey pieces of Hungarian literature into their own mother tongue. The house follows the model of West European translation centres (e.g. Straelen und Arles) and can host five translators at a time.

Both foreign and Hungarian publishers can make use of this support.

d, Following the model of German and Austrian literary houses, a Literary House has been arranged in the "Petőfi" Museum of Literature. In addition to readings and symposia, it hosts different literary organisations and meetings. However, a databank on the contemporary Hungarian authors has also been under consideration
