A precise time
period laid down by law applies to all applications for residence permit, see
here. While following the course of time period applicable for a specific set of proceedings, you
must take into account the possibility of suspension of proceedings due to additional information being required by the MOI CR when the elapse of time period is also suspended.
The applicant is entitled to know the reference number of his/her application, and also, if desired, to demand a confirmation of submission of the application where this number will be indicated.
Thanks to the reference number, the party to proceedings will have the opportunity to view the
list of approved applications which is regularly updated
here. In the same place, you can find instructions on when to contact the office to arrange picking up the residence permit, and/or to provide biometric data. This list does not contain information on rejected applications, since in such a situation the
party to the proceedings always receives postal notification of this.
In the case of applications submitted to a Czech embassy, all information will be communicated to the applicant via the embassy which, dependent on local conditions, will choose the most suitable method of contacting the applicant.
