EMPLOYMENT OF FOREIGNERS
If an employer has a vacancy, which cannot be occupied by a citizen of the Czech Republic, other EU/EEC state or Switzerland, nor a family member of such citizen or a person having permanent residence in the Czech Republic, he may occupy it with a foreigner from a third country.
As of 1.1.2009, in connection with the amendment to the Employment Act No 382/2008 Coll., the condition of the duty of the employer to ask for permission to employ foreigners was cancelled.
