In the following sections, you will find important information on visas and permits to help you successfully complete the visa process.

Please note that, long-term visa and residence permit processing is solely under the authority of our Ministry of Interior and Embassies abroad (MFA CZ) and the Czech Ministry of the Interior (MoI CZ).

For the above-mentioned reasons, it is not within the competence of Charles University to expedite the visa issuance (or appointment) process.

We also do not provide visa counselling.
