EU nationals: When travelling from one border-free Schengen country to another, you are not required to show your passport or national ID card at the border. However, airlines, train operators, and other carriers may require you to show a valid passport or national ID card to confirm your identity.
Non-EU nationals: To enter the Czech Republic, you must have a valid passport issued within the past ten years and valid for at least three months beyond the intended departure date, along with a return or onward ticket and proof of sufficient funds for your stay.
Beware that Cyprus and Ireland are EU members but not part of the Schengen Area, so a passport or ID card is required if travelling to/from these countries.
EU Nationals: Citizens of EU countries do not require a visa for stays of up to 90 days in the Czech Republic. Those planning to stay longer will need a residence registration certificate with local authorities.
Non-EU Nationals: Citizens of the following countries can visit the Czech Republic visa-free for up to 90 days within a 180-day period:

Nationals from countries not listed above are advised to contact the nearest Czech embassy or consulate to verify visa requirements.
Short-stay (Schengen C) visa: €90 for those who are 12 years old and above, €45 for children aged six to 11, and free for children under six. Certain categories such as students, researchers, and family members of EU/EEA citizens are exempt from fees.
If you pass through a Czech airport, you may need an airport transit (A) visa, depending on your nationality.
EU nationals: You will need a long-term residence permit for more than 90 days.
Non-EU nationals: You will need a visa to stay in Czechia for more than 90 days.
Schengen visa applications usually take 15 calendar days, but processing can take up to 45 days during peak periods.
Visa applicants must show proof of sufficient funds to cover the duration of their stay.
Visitors who don't have a residence permit in the Czech Republic must register their accommodation address in the Czech Republic with the nearest foreign police department within three (3) working days of arriving unless you are staying in a hotel, which will do the registration on behalf of you. EU nationals are obliged to register their accommodation address within 30 days of arriving.
Schengen visas can only be extended in exceptional circumstances such as force majeure or humanitarian reasons.
Pets from other EU countries must have a microchip, an EU pet passport, and a valid rabies vaccination administered at least 21 days before travel. Pets from outside the EU must also have an ISO-compliant 15-digit microchip and veterinary certificate. A rabies antibody test may be required depending on the country of origin.
