Border rules in the Czech Republic
- Passport validity: the safe standard for the Czech Republic is a passport 6 months left on the day you arrive.
- The Czech Republic uses the EU Entry/Exit System: visitors from outside the EU give fingerprints and a face photo at the border instead of getting a passport stamp. It has been fully running since 10 April 2026.
- Schengen short stays are capped at 90 days in any 180. ETIAS, the EU travel authorisation, isn’t running yet and has no start date, so there is nothing to apply for.
