MoreAs of 1st January 2024, the minimum wage has increased to CZK 18,900 (a total increase of CZK 1,600). The minimum hourly wage is now CZK 112.50.

The unemployed and self-payers

The self-employed (‘OSVČ’)

The parental allowance for parents on parental leave has increased to CZK 350,000 (CZK 525,000 if multiples are born). This applies to parents of children born from 1st January 2024 and parents of children taken into permanent care replacing parental care from the same date on. However, parents can now draw the parental allowance only until the child reaches the age of 3 (instead of 4 as before). You are entitled to parental allowance only if you or the other parent of your child are permanent residence holders.
