Assistance to Foreign Researchers

Assistance to Foreign Researchers

We operate a EURAXESS Centre providing information and advice to researchers moving across international borders. We assist researchers from abroad in the bureaucratic process of obtaining long-term residence permits for the purposes of scientific research. We work together with Czech research institutes when they are preparing for the arrival of a researcher from abroad, coordinate the procedures for obtaining the necessary permits, advise on the latest legal changes and offer expertise in completing the necessary paperwork. We work closely with the Czech Ministry of the Interior on each individual case and, when provided with a power of attorney for the purpose, can carry out certain bureaucratic tasks on the researcher’s behalf.

Individual assistance

The EURAXESS Centre provides fully personalised, face-to-face assistance, interpreting and other services in connection with appointments at Czech authorities including the Ministry of the Interior (Department for Asylum and Migration Policy), the Foreign Police, and others. Researchers typically turn to us several times during their residency in the Czech Republic. At any one time, we are usually involved in advising some 800 researchers representing more than 60 different nationalities.

Foreign researcher integration

We provide a range of services designed to facilitate the integration of researchers from abroad, and their families, into Czech life. We offer regular Czech language classes, discussion events and social gatherings, as well as daytrips and weekend excursions to places of cultural and natural interest around the country. We enable researchers of all nationalities and academic fields to meet and get to know Czech researchers both professionally and socially.

Careers in science and research

We manage a unique web portal dedicated to researcher mobility: www.euraxess.cz. In addition to a substantial amount of practical information regarding life in the Czech Republic for researchers from abroad, the portal provides access to the EURAXESS Jobs&Funding pages, where vacant positions in research institutions anywhere in the European Research Area can be advertised and potential applicants can search for suitable vacancies and upload their CVs for consideration.
