If you’re interested in living in the Czech Republic for more than 3 months and working as a freelancer, you should apply for a long-term visa. Pexpats help you with the entire process.
We prepare all the paperwork for your visa as a freelancer in the Czech Republic and support you through every step of the process. Most tasks are done for you with a power of attorney so you save your time and avoid the bureaucratic hassles, and get intensive support with all aspects of your Czech freelancing visa.

A Digital Nomad visa in the Czech Republic is not the same as in some specific countries. The applicant of a Czech freelancing visa should prove that he will have income in the Czech Republic from Czech registered businesses or local Czech residents
