Legal provisions for foreign architects
The permission and therefore the possibilities to exercise in Czech Republic are defined under the
provisions of the Building Law, by the Act on Engagement of Chartered Architects, law n°360 / 1992, and
on authorization of the Czech National Order of Architects. The Czech National Order of Architects
delivers an authorization according to the rules aforementioned in the following fields : civil engineering,
urban planning, design and landscaping, or an unspecified authorization — i.e. a general authorization in
any field of activity.
If a foreign architect wishes to exercize his profession and to implement buildings in the Czech Republic,
in the fields defined par the regulations, there are two possibilities : 1- To work in association with a czech
architect entitled with a building authorization. In this case, there are two simples possibilities of
association, as an employee of the czech architect, or by creating a joint desk by means of an association
or by creating in common a legal person. The copyrights are detained by both architects. The czech
authorized architect marks this common protection with his official authorization.
2- In a few cases, an exception can be made to these regulations and, under certain circumstances, a
foreign architect can receive the permission to exercise his profession directly from the Order of Czech
Architects.
In this case, the foreign architect must obtain a recognition of his foreign diploma and reference of his
professional activity. Therefore, all the documents must be translated in czech. The cost of this translation
are payable by the applicant.
If the applicant is not able to obtain a recognition of his diploma, he may ask for an exceptionnal
authorization according to paragraph 8, section IV of the law n° 360/1992. The Order of Czech Architects
may recognize a similar qualification and exempt the applicant of the diploma certificate, only if he passes
the examination of professionnal qualification. This examination includes a test of knowledge and of
personal practice, as far as the works submitted allow to do so, and an examination of knowledge of the
czech regulations in the professionnal field of activity under consideration.
