Benefits
Czech POINT saves your time and energy spent visiting public authorities. Post offices also have more convenient opening hours than the respective authorities. Some are open on Saturdays, or even Sundays. Once you are there, you can not only get the extracts you need but also pay bills or pick up deposited mail.
Parameters
Extract from the Land Register
Do you need to prove that a real property belongs to you, or do you want to know who is the owner of a neighbouring house or strip of forest? Extracts from this public register are available without identity proof of the customers. You can order either a full or a partial copy of the certificate of title.
Details required for an extract include: cadastral area. Other options are: ownership folio number, land plot number, building registration number, housing unit number.
Extract from the Criminal Register - individuals
You may need an extract from the Criminal Register to get a job. Extracts from this non-public part of the register may only be issued to the registered persons themselves. Other persons may receive the extract only as proxies (holders of an authenticated power of attorney issued by the concerned person).
Details required for an extract include the basic identification details (name, birth surname, current surname, birth number, nationality) and details of the applicant’s birth (state, district, municipality of birth, if necessary date of birth in the case of foreigners without assigned birth number).
You will have to produce one of the following identity documents to obtain an extract:
- valid identification card, or
- valid passport, or
- identity document or residence permit for aliens.
If any of the required details are missing in the identity document, you will have to produce another official or authenticated document, such as birth certificate, to prove the missing detail(s). If the additional document is in a language other than Czech or Slovak, it must be produced together with an official translation into the Czech language.
Proxy holders will have to produce the following documents:
- authenticated power of attorney (in the Czech language), and
- valid identity document.
Extract from the Criminal Register - legal entities
Extracts from this public part of the register are publicly available. The identity of applicants for extracts from the register for legal entities will therefore not be checked.
The price for an application for extract from the Criminal Register for a legal entity is the same as for an application for extract from the Criminal Register for an individual, i.e. CZK 100 inclusive of VAT.
