Czech Notice Period Calculator (Výpovědní Doba)
Find the last day of a Czech notice period (výpovědní doba): 2 months from the day the notice is delivered, under the rules in force since June 2025.
The same notice applies to the employer and the employee and can be longer only if it is the same for both. Notice for poor performance or breach of duties (§ 52 f–h) is 1 month. Notice must be in writing.
What it does
Since 1 June 2025 the Czech notice period (výpovědní doba) starts on the day the notice is delivered and ends on the day with the same number 2 months later; if that month has no such day, it ends on the last day of the month (§ 51 of the zákoník práce). It is at least 2 months for both sides, or 1 month when the employer dismisses for reasons under § 52 f–h.
How to use it
- Type the day the notice was delivered.
- Choose the length of the notice.
- Read the last day of employment.
