Minimum Wage

The minimum wage in Czechia is CZK 124.40 per hour or CZK 20,800 per month, which equals CZK 249,600 per year, based on a standard 40-hour workweek. This rate is effective starting January 1, 2025.

Payroll Cycle

Salaries must be paid on a monthly basis on a consistent date set by the employer.

Onboarding Time

We can help you get a new employee started in Czechia fast. The minimum onboarding time we need is only 5 working days.

Our team ensures your employees are onboarded and paid as quickly as possible while keeping your business compliant with all local employment legislation. The minimum onboarding time begins after the employee submits all required information onto the Remote platform. The onboarding timeline is also dependent upon registration with local authorities.

For all non-nationals of the country of employment, the Right to Work assessment (if applicable) will add three extra days to the total time to onboard. There may be extra time required if we need to follow-up on the right to work assessment.

Please note, payroll cut-off dates can impact the actual first day of employment. Remote has a payroll cut-off date of the 10th of the month unless otherwise specified.
