People from Taiwan will soon be able to work in Czechia without the need for work permits or employment cards. The government approved a regulation today that expands the list of non-European Union countries whose citizens have unrestricted access to the Czech labor market.

The regulation is expected to come into effect at the beginning of next month, after its official promulgation. This measure aims to ease the situation for foreign experts, managers, and their employers. The list of countries can be adjusted by the cabinet based on the current labor market conditions, following discussions in the tripartite. As of the end of June last year, 80 men and 105 women from Taiwan were employed in Czechia.
