Company Formation in Czech Republic
Europe
Overview
The Czech Republic, an integral part of the European Union since 2004, is renowned for its high standard of living, developed infrastructure, and favorable business climate. Its strategic geographical location fosters strong relationships with both Western and Eastern partners. While not a classic offshore jurisdiction, it offers attractive tax incentives and a loyal tax framework for international investors, making it a highly prestigious place to conduct business in Europe. Establishing a company here also provides a pathway to obtaining permanent residency.
