Country overview

About Czechia

Czechia (the Czech Republic) is a landlocked republic in Central Europe. Prague is the capital and the largest city. About 10.9 million people live here. It borders Germany, Poland, Slovakia and Austria. Czech is the official language. The currency is the koruna (CZK), not the euro.

Czechia joined the European Union in 2004 and is in Schengen. It is an industrial and export economy in the heart of Central Europe, with close ties to Germany and a high density of manufacturing, engineering and professional services. Prague is a recognised European business city. The legal system is civil law.

Brikseka forms Czech companies. The usual vehicle is a společnost s ručením omezeným (s.r.o.). A notary is typically involved. Formation can often proceed with a power of attorney; identification, banking, or immigration may still require travel.

We then advise on a business bank account and payment gateways such as Stripe and PayPal. Approvals are decided by the providers. If your aim is to live in Czechia, company formation is not a residence permit — that is a separate immigration file, which we also advise on.

  • Company formation

    We form an s.r.o. with Czech counsel and a notary, then stay with the file through banking and payments.

  • European Union

    EU member since 2004 and in Schengen. The koruna is the currency. A Czech company sits inside the single market.

  • Central Europe

    A manufacturing and services base between Germany, Poland, Slovakia and Austria, with Prague as the commercial centre.

  • Tax setting

    Corporate income tax is published at 21 percent. We confirm the live position before you proceed.

How we work

From briefing to a registered company

  1. Briefing

    We review your business, the right entity for this country, costs, and whether a visit is likely.

  2. Company formation

    Local counsel, notary where required, and the commercial register. We coordinate the documents through to a registered company.

  3. Banking and payments

    After the company exists, we prepare applications for a business account and payment gateways.

  4. After incorporation

    Statutory records, a named contact, and introductions to accounting so the company can operate.

After the company exists

Payment gateways

  • Stripe, subject to Stripe’s approval
  • PayPal Business, subject to PayPal’s approval

Operating stack

Business banking
