The Czech Republic is sometimes perceived by the Russians as a kind of barrier between Russia and Europe. In the Czech Republic, everything is not quite the same as ours, but not quite there, like "in the West." Emigration to the Czech Republic is a change in life without the stress associated with the need to perceive a completely foreign culture. The ease of emigration to the Czech Republic also speaks in favor of this country: to obtain a permanent residence in the Czech Republic, it is enough to live in it for five years, having a residence permit.

The easiest way to obtain a residence permit in the Czech Republic is to be the director of a company registered in the Czech Republic, i.e. just have a business. Then you and your minor children, and your spouse can move to the Czech Republic. To obtain a residence permit, you will need to collect the following documents:
1. a document confirming your place of residence in the Czech Republic - for example, a house rental contract, etc.
2. medical insurance (preferably Czech).
3. certificate of no criminal record.
4. bank statement.
5. Three photographs 3.5 cm by 4.5 cm.
6. A completed application form (download it here: http://www.mzv.cz/ ).
7. documents of your Czech company - to confirm its availability.
8. passport.
9. A copy of a bank card.
With the above package of documents, you must come for an interview at the Czech embassy or consulate at the place of residence. Within 2-3 months, a decision is made on the issue of a residence permit.

A residence permit is initially issued for only 6 months. Therefore, it must be extended, which is done only in the Czech Republic. Documents for the extension of a residence permit must be submitted no later than 14 days before the expiration date of the residence permit. The first and all subsequent extensions of a residence permit are made for a period of two years. The extension of a residence permit usually takes 1-2 months.

After five years of living in the Czech Republic, it is necessary to apply for a permanent residence. It is worth remembering that in order to obtain a permanent place of residence one cannot be absent from the Czech Republic for more than 10 months in five years or more than six months continuously. Also, to obtain a permanent residence you will need to pass an exam in the Czech language. Permanent residence in the Czech Republic can be obtained for a ten-year term.
