Your first hire in the Czech Republic?

Best EOR provider in the Czech Republic
for a team you cannot yet employ.

Choosing between Employer of Record providers for the Czech Republic comes down to three questions: who signs the employment contract, whether the monthly filings to ČSSZ and the health insurer go in on time, and who replies when something goes wrong. Here is how to test a provider on each, and what we answer.

The same person every month

Someone who knows your contracts.

The awkward cases show what a provider is worth. You get a named contact who works on Czech payroll and employment every day, already knows your contracts, and comes back with an answer that holds under the zákoník práce rather than a ticket number.

Tereza, your contactCzech payroll and HR
Before you sign

What should you ask an EOR before you commit?

Eight questions that separate a provider who employs people from one who resells someone else who does.

Whose name is on the pracovní smlouva

Ask whose company appears on the pracovní smlouva. If it is a partner firm you never speak to, your escalation route runs through two sets of terms.

Getting the monthly filings right

Contributions reach ČSSZ and the employee’s health insurer between the 1st and the 20th of the following month. Ask who checks the inputs and who signs the run off.

Where the liability sits

Statutory accident cover is automatic for every Czech employer. Ask what sits on top of it, and who answers a claim if a dismissal is challenged in court.

Handling of employee records

Ask who is controller and who is processor, which systems hold the osobní spis, and how long payroll records are kept after someone leaves.

Depth on Czech employment law

Ask whether the person answering works on Czech employment every day, and whether they own the question through to an answer rather than routing it.

A start date you can hold

Ask for a timeline built from the real steps: contract, probation agreed in writing before day one, and ČSSZ registration within eight days.

A fee that does not move

A flat fee per employee is easier to plan around than a percentage of salary. Ask for any extras in writing before you add the second hire.

Paperwork you can pull yourself

You should be able to download contracts, payslips and proof of each monthly filing without asking anyone.

Competitor fees are shown in the currency each provider publishes them in, which for most is US dollars. Our fee is €499 per employee per month. At the Česká národní banka fixing of 21 September 2026 (1 EUR = 24.350 CZK) that is approximately 12,150 CZK, and at the European Central Bank reference rate of the same date (1 EUR = 1.1490 USD) approximately 573 USD. The fee is contractually in euro, so the koruna figure moves with the exchange rate and is an indication rather than a price. Competitor prices were checked on each provider’s own pricing page on 22 September 2026. Where a provider publishes a starting rate, that figure is a starting point and not a quoted rate, and several providers publish no Czech rate at all. Every figure here is a management fee and excludes salary and the 33.80% employer contributions. Figures were correct in September 2026 and may since have changed.

2026One monthly employer report

Czech payroll reporting was rebuilt in 2026

From 1 April 2026 several separate employer registrations and returns were replaced by the jednotné měsíční hlášení zaměstnavatele, a single monthly report to ČSSZ, with the first one filed for April between 1 and 20 May. Separate tax-payer registration moved into the ČSSZ employee registry, health insurer filings went electronic only from 1 January, and the minimální mzda rose to 22,400 CZK a month. A provider worth paying moves your payroll onto each change before it bites. We did that this year.

Asked most often

Questions buyers ask about Czech EOR providers

Whose name is on the employment contract?+
Our own Czech company is the employer. Your people are employed by it on Czech employment contracts under the zákoník práce, and it carries the statutory employer duties. You set the work, the priorities and the targets day to day.
How is Czech payroll and tax handled each month?+
Payroll runs monthly. Zálohová daň is withheld at 15% on the tax base, with the sleva na poplatníka of 2,570 CZK applied where the employee has signed a prohlášení poplatníka. Employer contributions of 24.8% go to ČSSZ and 9.0% to the employee’s own health insurer, both between the 1st and the 20th of the following month.
What happens about pensions and health cover?+
The Czech state pension is funded through důchodové pojištění inside the 24.8% social contribution, which we pay. Public health insurance runs separately and is paid to whichever of the seven insurers the employee chose. Anything on top, such as doplňkové penzijní spoření or supplementary cover, is a benefit you decide on and we administer.
What cover sits behind the employment?+
Every Czech employer is insured by operation of law against liability for occupational injury and disease, through Kooperativa, from the day the first employment starts. We tell you what else we hold and where each risk sits before you sign anything.
Where do employee records live?+
Ask any provider to name the controller and the processor in writing, say which systems hold the osobní spis, and state how long payroll records are kept after someone leaves. We set ours out before onboarding starts.
Does the monthly figure move?+
The fee is €499 per employee per month, roughly 12,150 CZK at the Česká národní banka fixing of 21 September 2026. It is contractually in euro, so the koruna equivalent moves with the rate. If something you ask for costs extra, you see the figure before you agree to it.
Can terms be changed after signing?+
Yes. Pay rises, a new job title, different hours or a move to práce na dálku are all recorded in writing, and the § 37 information is reissued at the latest on the day the change takes effect, as the zákoník práce requires.
Who answers a question about Czech law?+
A named contact who works on Czech employment every day. Our Czech company holds an employment agency licence (povolení ke zprostředkování zaměstnání) issued by MPSV, and questions stay with the person who took them until they are answered.
