Czech Republic Company Formation Questions
Can the director be a non-EU citizen?
Yes. A non-EU director needs a clean criminal record from their home country, legalised and translated into Czech.
Is the trade licence mandatory?
Yes for most activities. Free trades are registered in a day; regulated professions need proof of qualification.
What ongoing compliance is there?
Annual accounts, a corporate tax return, and VAT returns if registered. We bundle this into our maintenance package.
