In Part 2 of LIVE+WORK Czech Republic, Jan Kalina dives into the key details that every expat should know—visa types, health insurance, and the importance of a local bank account.
Visas are more than just paperwork. As Jan explains, "Different visas for different seasons" means understanding the timing of your application can significantly speed up the process.
Health insurance is another must-have for foreigners. If you’re planning to stay for a year, expect to budget around $800 annually. It’s an investment not just in peace of mind, but also in meeting local legal requirements.
And for those ready to fully immerse themselves in Czech life, opening a local bank account is highly recommended. While your current account may work in the short term, having a Czech account makes financial transactions smoother—especially if you're planning to do business here.
Watch the video now to hear Jan's expert advice and make your move to the Czech Republic a seamless one!
