CRYPTOCURRENCY SETTLEMENTS IN THE CZECH REPUBLIC

Cryptocurrency is a unique means of calculation, they do not have a specific form of banknotes or coins, and are expressed only in digital form. The main difference from the usual currency for us is that the cryptocurrency rate and it itself is not subordinated to the central bank or government agencies. That is, it exists in itself, it can be affected by any phenomena, this is its advantage, and at the same time a disadvantage. Currently, payment for services, transfers to the account, various payments can be made in cryptocurrency. The ease of such transactions is that you do not need to meet in person to transfer money, but you can do it online using a suitable cryptocurrency.

What is the legal status of cryptocurrencies in the Czech Republic?

In the Czech Republic, all cryptocurrencies are legal, so there will be no problems with their use. They have the status of intangible movable property. The Czech National Bank does not determine their funds. Therefore, the purchase and sale of cryptocurrency is not considered pltazhino service. From CNB’s point of view, cryptocurrencies are not virtual money, foreign currency, and cannot be considered similar to securities.

How are cryptocurrency transactions taxed in the Czech Republic?

An individual pays a tax of 15% on the periodic sale and purchase of cryptocurrency, such tax is calculated based on the difference between the cost of purchases and income from its sale. The legal entity pays a tax of 19% of the tax base. The advantage is that “other income” coming from cryptocurrencies is also reflected in the overall economic result. Therefore, the possible loss of the company in another activity may reduce the profit from cryptocurrencies (tax base). If there are two parties seller and buyer and they use cryptocurrency, then they will both pay taxes

Is it possible to invest in cryptocurrency?

You can create a cryptocurrency fund. Its advantages are the choice of European jurisdiction, the absence of any restrictions on servicing in Czech banks, a reduced tax for the fund of only 5%.

Is mining allowed?

Mining has not yet been studied in the legal field of regulating cryptocurrency transactions. It is not banned by the EU, but it is not officially allowed.

Features:

When conducting any cryptocurrency transactions, anonymity cannot be ensured, so cryptocurrencies and other services must establish their clients in order to prevent money laundering in an illegal way.

Importantly! We recommend a mechanism for acquiring certain property for a “crypt” by concluding a mine contract. The conclusion of a contract of sale of goods or services where payment is made by cryptocurrency may be declared null and void in court because the crypto as a currency is not recognized at the legislative level of the Czech Republic. For example, cryptocurrency in Ukraine is not recognized as a means of payment, and by virtue of some regulations and positions of central authorities is equated to surrogate money.

Is company registration possible without a personal visit to the Czech Republic?

Yes. The procedure is fully adapted for remote launch. All legal actions are performed on the basis of a power of attorney, notarized and, if necessary, apostilled in your country.

Why shouldn't you use a share capital of 1 crown?

Although the law allows a share capital of 1 crown, minimal capital reduces trust from banks and European counterparties, and also creates problems when passing banking compliance (AML). To confirm the seriousness of intentions, it is recommended to contribute an amount of at least 10,000 – 100,000 crowns, which can be used for the company’s operational needs after opening the account.

What is the difference between an s.r.o. and a sole proprietor (OSVČ)?

Apart from the issue of limited liability, the key difference lies in taxation. OSVČs in the Czech Republic are eligible for a single tax regime (paušální daň), which in 2026 requires a fixed monthly payment of between 9,162 and 27,139 crowns, depending on income. However, the status of a sole proprietor limits business scaling and complicates interaction with large B2B clients, who prefer to work with VAT payers in the form of an s.r.o.
