Act No. 186/2013 Coll., on Acquiring and Losing Citizenship of the Czech Republic
Status: Current legislation
The citizenship law of the Czech Republic is based on the principles of jus sanguinis or "right by blood".[1] In other words, descent from a Czech parent is the primary method of acquiring Czech citizenship (together with naturalisation). Birth on Czech territory without a Czech parent is in itself insufficient for the conferral of Czech citizenship. Every Czech citizen is also a citizen of the European Union. The law came into effect on 1 January 1993, the date of the dissolution of Czechoslovakia, and has been amended in 1993, 1995, 1996, 1999, 2002, 2003, and 2005. Since 1 January 2014, multiple citizenship under Czech law is allowed.[2][3]
