If organizing or participating in a large-scale event in Czechia – such as congress, conference, international sport event and other – for a large group of participants with visa obligation, do contact the territorially competent consulate sufficiently in advance.
To process these applications smoothly and in time, we ask for your cooperation in observing these organizational rules:
• inform the territorially competent consulate at least 2-3 months prior to the event – preferably earlier and certainly not later
• provide a more or less finalized list of participants
• prepare a uniform itinerary for all participants – common arrival and departure date, no additional unrelated deviations from the uniform itinerary (for example without additional travel in the Schengen by some members of the group only)
• appoint a contact person who will communicate with the consulate on behalf of participants
****
Due to the consulates´ other workload and need to effectively plan and organize their work, large group applications may only be processed in time when granting this necessary cooperation.
