How It Works

Ten to sixteen weeks, five stages. The embassy stage is the long one and no agency can shorten it — anyone who says otherwise is describing something illegal.

Week 1 — First contact

You message us on WhatsApp with your nationality, trade and whether you hold a valid passport. We check it against current intakes and tell you within a day whether we have something. If we do not, we say so rather than keeping you on a list indefinitely.

Week 1–2 — Employer interview

A video call of about fifteen minutes. For unskilled roles it is a check that you understand the shift pattern and the conditions. For welding, CNC and driving you will be asked about your certificate and may be asked for photos of your work.

Week 2–3 — Contract

You receive a signed employment contract naming the employer, the site, the position and the pay — in English as well as Czech. You read it before you spend anything. This is the point at which a real offer becomes verifiable and a fake one falls apart.

Week 3–6 — Documents and filing

Police clearance, apostille, certified translations, medical certificate. We assemble the employee card file and book your visa centre appointment. Appointment availability is the first real bottleneck, especially in India and Pakistan.

Week 6–16 — The decision

The Czech Ministry of the Interior decision takes 60 to 90 days by statute. There is nothing to do in this period except respond quickly if they request anything. We check status fortnightly and tell you either way.

Week 16–18 — Arrival

Visa sticker collected, flight booked, we meet you at Prague airport. Within the first week: foreign police registration within three working days, biometrics for the physical card, insurance activation, bank account, SIM. Then your first shift.

Where it usually goes wrong. Not at the decision — at the documents. A missing apostille or an uncertified translation is the single most common cause of refusal, and it is entirely avoidable. That is why we assemble the file rather than emailing you a checklist.

Want to work in Germany? Start in Czechia.

Most people search for Germany first — and then hit a wall: language requirements, long embassy queues, employers who will not sponsor. There is a legal route around it that almost nobody explains.

1 · Czech employee card
2 · A1 posting certificate
3 · Work in Germany, Netherlands or Sweden

You get a Czech work permit through a Czech employer. Once you hold it, EU posted-worker rules let that employer send you to work in another member state on an A1 certificate — with no German language requirement and no second visa application.
