If you are going to stay in the Czech Republic for more than 30 days, you must get registered within 30 working days from the day you arrived in the country, i.e. report your place of residence in the Czech Republic to a corresponding Department of Foreign Police.

In order to get registered you will need:

• Travel document.
• Registration form (available at the police department).

Learn more information about the registration of residence at the Department of Foreign Police.

You do not need to get registered if you:

• have met this requirement at the accommodation (e.g. you are staying at a hotel, dormitory or another accommodation establishment),
• you are under 15 years of age, or
• you are a staff member of a foreign country’s diplomatic mission or an international government organisation accredited in the Czech Republic (this also applies to your family members who are registered by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs).

As an EU citizen’s family member, you must get registered after you arrive in the Czech Republic. That means that you must report your place of residence in the Czech Republic to the corresponding Department of Foreign Police:

• within 30 days from the day you arrived, if the EU citizen resides in the Czech Republic and you are going to stay in the country for more than 30 days,
• within 3 days from the day you arrived, if the EU citizen does not reside in the Czech Republic.

If you want to stay in the Czech Republic for more than 90 days, you must apply for a temporary residence permit of an EU citizen’s family member.

In order to get registered you will need:

• Travel document.
• Registration form (available at the police department).
