Permanent residence permit of an EU citizen

What and who is it for? A Permanent Residence Permit is intended for EU citizens (and, under certain conditions, UK nationals). It is a significant step toward securing long-term stability in the Czech Republic and is essential for those considering applying for Czech citizenship. Holding this permit grants many of the same rights and opportunities as Czech nationals, including the ability to work and live without restrictions, as well as access to long-term benefits such as healthcare and social services. It also enables you to vote in municipal and European Parliament elections.

Who qualifies for it? To qualify, you must have lived in the Czech Republic for at least five years of continuous residence (exceptions may apply).

How long is the Permanent Residence Permit valid? The status is granted for an indefinite period, with the only requirement being the periodic renewal of the biometric card (residence permit document) once per 10 years.
