Can I bring my family on the Czech Republic digital nomad visa?
AI Answer
Yes, you can bring your family on the Czech Republic digital nomad visa (the Zivnostensky List), but they need to apply for their own separate visas. Your spouse and dependent children can apply for long-term visas or residency permits based on family reunification.
You'll need to prove you can financially support them. For a family of three (you, spouse, child), expect to show around 150,000 CZK (approximately $6,500 USD) in your bank account for their first year's living expenses, in addition to your own proof of funds. You also need to demonstrate suitable accommodation for everyone.
The Czech Republic offers a high quality of life with a 6.9/10 score on the Net Life Value Quality of Life Index. Income tax for nomads is a flat 15% on profits, and social security is about 29.2% of your assessed income. Childcare costs are relatively affordable, averaging around $300-$500 per month for full-time care.
Start planning early for your family's applications, as the process can take several months.
