What is an Employee Card and how the process works
What is an Employee Card?
The Employee Card (ZamΔstnaneckΓ‘ karta) is your legal document for living and working in Czech Republic. It combines a work permit and residence permit into one card. Your coordinator from the agency handles the entire process for you.
Your Coordinator Handles Everything
Your coordinator from the agency manages the entire Employee Card process on your behalf β from document preparation to scheduling appointments. You will be informed when your physical presence is needed (biometrics, card collection). Just follow their instructions.
