Why test your Czech?
Czech permanent residency and citizenship
The Czech Republic requires an official A1 language certificate for permanent residency and higher levels for citizenship, and a self-check tells you how close you are before booking the official exam.
Working or studying in Czechia
Prague and Brno's expanding job market rewards working Czech even in international companies, and a certificate gives recruiters a quick reference point.
Everyday life in the Czech Republic
From renting an apartment to visiting a doctor, daily life in Czechia runs in Czech, and knowing your level helps you plan realistically for how much support you'll still need.

Czech permanent residency requires an official A1-level Czech certificate from an approved test center, and citizenship applications ask for a higher level along with a citizenship test. A free check here helps you see how close you are to A1 before you register for the official exam, which is the only version that counts for your application.
