REAL PROPERTY TAX
The 2015 real property tax (or first instalment) fell due on 1 June 2015. For individuals and legal entities that do not have a data box, money orders are mailed out by the tax authorities.
If a taxpayer’s real property is in several jurisdictions (in terms of Czech tax administration) money orders from all tax authorities will be in one envelope. Taxpayers should receive the money orders by 25 May.
The tax administration posted information about global real property tax prescription lists by means of which local tax authorities communicate the new amount of tax. The global list contains taxpayers whose 2015 tax included in the tax changed from the previous year or whose amount included in the tax return changed. Taxpayers can review global prescription lists at their local tax authority office on business days from 30 April through 1 June.
Taxpayers not listed in the global prescription lists will, in line with the Real Property Tax Act, be subject to tax in the amount of the most recently known tax based on the information included in the tax return.
If a taxpayer does not receive an envelope with the money order to pay the real property tax and wants to find out whether or not their tax changed, we recommend that they check the global prescription lists or at least inquire via telephone with the tax authority’s staff.

Evidence skutečných majitelů: Co přinese znepřístupnění od 17. prosince 2025?
Letošní rozhodnutí Nejvyššího soudu a Nejvyššího správního soudu navázala na rozsudky Soudního dvora Evropské unie, a, s platností i pro Českou republiku, konstatovala, že zveřejňování údajů v rámci evidence skutečných majitelů představuje nepřiměřený zásah do základních práv majitelů na soukromí a ochranu osobních údajů. Důležitým aspektem těchto rozhodnutí byl závěr, že sankce, které postihují povinné subjekty jako reakce na nesplnění jejich povinnosti zápisu do evidence skutečných majitelů, není možné vymáhat, dokud je evidence veřejná. Tato situace se změní 17. prosince 2025, kdy ministerstvo znepřístupní evidenci skutečných majitelů; povinným subjektům tak budou opět hrozit závažné sankce.
30th Advent Concert for the Committee of Good Will – Olga Havlová Foundation
This year again, during the pre-Christmas season, the Advent Concert of Good Will took place. Since 1995, it has been organised by the law firm Kocián Šolc Balaštík in support of the Committee of Good Will – Olga Havlová Foundation. This was already the 30th anniversary edition, made exceptional by the fact that we organised it for the first time together with our partner, Smetanova Litomyšl, as part of a broader mutual cooperation. As always, the concert was held in the concert hall of the Church of Sts. Simon and Jude in Prague’s Old Town.
