Visit the Regional Data Centre KACPU

As Ukrainians coming to the Czech Republic, you can register here, apply for a special long-stay visa, get medical insurance or get information about employment. You can get help with accommodation and other assistance.

We recommend you to visit KACPU, because here you can find everything you need to know. Officers of the Police for Foreigners and the Department of Immigration and Migration Policy (OAMP) will be at your disposal, as well as officers of the Health Insurance Company (VZP) and the Labour Office.

With children under the age of 15 it is not necessary to go to the Regional Assistance Centre. If you have a secure home and safe care for them, we recommend that you do not take them to KACPU. You only need to come to the workplace with a legal document or a birth certificate. We recommend that you take a passport size photo of them with you. Please do not leave any documents you came with or that you received from the Czech authorities.
