FAQ
Can I change employers later?
Yes, but you must follow official notification/approval steps. We guide you through a compliant change when the time comes.
Can I apply from inside CZ?
Sometimes yes (depending on your current status). We confirm whether embassy or MOI filing is correct for you.
Do I need a university degree?
Only if the vacancy requires it. Otherwise, a standard contract + registry vacancy is enough.
What if my embassy has quotas?
Some embassies have appointment quotas. We advise on timing, alternatives, and priority programs if available.
