The Hungarian International Championships or Magyar Nemzetközi Bajnokság was a combined men's and women's clay court tennis tournament first established in 1903.

History

In 1894, the Hungarian National Tennis Championships were established. In 1903, the first Hungarian international competition was held in Budapest and then part of Austria-Hungary. In the beginning, the national tournament did accept foreign entries, but it did not carry the denomination of international championships. In 1921, the international event became a standalone championship in its own right. After 1924, the Hungarian International Championships served as a fully open international event, while only Hungarian players could possibly go for the national title. After World War II, the international tournament continued through till 1975 when it was discontinued.
