Czech contracts for foreigners: which document to use in 2026
If you live or work in Czechia, you still sign Czech contracts in most cases. SmlouvaHned helps foreigners fill forms in English (or Ukrainian on separate guides) while the generated document stays primarily in Czech.
Start with housing
Most expats begin with a rental agreement. Read the dedicated guide or open the form directly.

How it works
Choose a contract type below. The online form can be filled in English where supported.
After payment you receive a PDF assembled from your inputs. For the rental agreement, an explanatory English translation annex is included — in case of discrepancy, the Czech wording prevails.
Core contracts with English guidance
Open the guide for your situation, then start the form:
- Rental agreement — lease + handover protocol (+ translation annex)
- Employment contract — Czech employment relationship
- DPP agreement — short-term work up to statutory limits
- Sublease — room or apartment with landlord consent
- Power of attorney — representation for authorities or transactions
- Car purchase agreement — private sale with VIN and handover
Important limits
SmlouvaHned is a software tool, not a law firm or attorney.
This article is informational only — not legal services (Act No. 85/1996 Coll., on the legal profession) and not immigration advice.
Documents are generated primarily in Czech. Where offered, translations are explanatory only, not certified or official.
If the text differs, the Czech wording prevails.
Standard rental, employment, DPP, sublease, power of attorney or car sale between private parties with clear terms.
Commercial leases, collective bargaining, insolvency, criminal liability or immigration filings that need certified documents.
