The Czech Republic has come a long way in the business world since its inclusion in the European Union in 2004. It is now known for its stable economy, low tax rates for EU citizens and excellent business conditions for foreigners. It also has excellent business links with China through a strategic partnership.
The official language is Czech, but the country, and particularly its capital city, Prague, are known as English-speaking hubs. The business environment is in a period of growth following the lowering of corporation tax to 19%, and several financial incentives are now in place in order to continue this growth. For instance, manufacturing investments are entitled to 10 years’ corporate tax relief and technological and new investment costs are subsidised by up to 50%.
