Imagine: After three years of hodling your crypto, you decide to buy a cosy apartment in Prague. You want to diversify a bit so you sell some crypto and invest in sound shares. Three years after you will send them with profit. Maybe you decide to stay longer but after 10 years your story ends here and you want to move on. Selling your Prague apartment with a nice profit. So far, you have paid exactly 0% tax. A dream? No, welcome to the Czech Republic!

Conditions for Tax Residency - What Czech Tax Law Says

Under the Czech Income Tax Act, you are generally considered a Czech tax resident when meeting at least one of the following criteria:

  • You have a permanent residence in the Czech Republic. This can be a property you own, rent, or otherwise have the right to use long-term. Key is your intention to stay there for a long period of time, and the home must be available to you at any time.

  • You spend at least 183 days in the Czech Republic within a calendar year. If you physically stay in the country for 183 days or more, you are typically treated as a Czech tax resident for that entire calendar year.

If you are also considered a resident in another country, Double Taxation Treaties generally decide which state becomes your primary country of tax residence (via so-called “tie-breaker” rules, such as where your permanent home is located, your center of vital interests, etc.).
