What conditions do I need to meet?
Access to healthcare is not at all limited. Czech nationals can select from seven health insurers. Health insurance is compulsory.
Employers pay insurance contributions for employees in the form of a separate payment and an amount deducted from employee wages. Self-employed persons (see Jargon busters) pay this insurance themselves. Persons who are not working and who are not insured by the State (see below) must pay their own insurance contributions as persons with no taxable income.
Insurance contributions for employees and self-employed persons are defined at the same rate of 13.5% of the assessment base from wages.
