Frequently asked questions
How are deadlines for legal documents calculated under Czech law?
Legal deadlines in the Czech Republic are calculated in calendar days, but in practice, working days are often discussed. According to the Civil Procedure Code, a deadline is calculated so that it expires at the last moment of the last day of the deadline. It is important to keep in mind that public holidays extend deadlines, especially if the last day falls on a holiday or weekend.
What is the standard deadline for invoice payment in the Czech Republic and how do holidays affect 2026?
The standard deadline for invoice payment is 30 calendar days from issuance, which typically corresponds to approximately 21-22 working days. In 2026, special attention should be paid to the period around Christmas (24-26 December) and New Year, which coincide with weekend days and may delay invoices by up to a week.
How many working days remain in 2026 after deducting all public holidays and weekends?
The year 2026 has 365 days. After deducting 52 Saturdays, 53 Sundays (2026 begins on Thursday), and 13 public holidays, approximately 247 working days remain. The exact number depends on which holidays fall on weekends - in 2026, for example, Good Friday (3 April) and Easter Monday (6 April).
How to meet the 30 working days deadline according to EU rules for public procurement during public holidays?
EU regulations on 30 working days for submitting an offer in public procurement proceedings are calculated in the Czech Republic without public holidays and weekends. If the deadline is announced in a time period with public holidays (for example, April with Easter or May), it is guaranteed that the deadline will be extended subsequently to give applicants a realistic chance to prepare their offer.
How do public holidays affect project planning and milestone duration?
Project managers in the Czech Republic should always plan using working days rather than calendar days and explicitly map public holidays relevant to their timeline. Periods such as March-May (Easter, Labour Day, Victory Day) or December (Christmas Eve and Christmas) regularly cause delays - it is recommended to allocate at least 5-10% time reserve in the plan.
