Use this page to prepare a Czech invoice for a client, customer, or public authority without missing the fields that turn a normal invoice into a VAT tax document. The practical outcome is a document with the right parties, invoice number, dates, supply description, prices, VAT treatment, and payment instructions.
Czech VAT tax documents are governed mainly by the Czech VAT Act. A VAT tax document must generally be issued within 15 days from the day the obligation to declare VAT or declare the supply arises. Specified intra-EU and cross-border cases use 15 days from the end of the relevant calendar month, so timing matters before the invoice leaves your business.
A Czech VAT tax document must identify the person making the supply and the person receiving it. Include tax identification numbers where assigned, plus the business name or name, any name supplement, and registered office. The invoice also needs an evidentiary tax-document number, or evidenční číslo daňového dokladu, which functions as the invoice number for VAT documentation.
The document must state the scope and subject of the supply, issue date, supply date or advance-payment date when different, unit price net of tax, any discount not included in the unit price, tax base, VAT rate, and VAT amount. Czech VAT uses a 21% standard rate and a 12% reduced rate. The VAT amount must be stated in Czech currency, even when other commercial amounts appear in another currency.
Paper and electronic Czech tax documents are both allowed, but an electronic tax document must be issued and received electronically with the recipient's consent. Before sending by email or another electronic method, keep evidence that the recipient accepts electronic documents and make sure the file stays readable after delivery.
A simplified tax document may be used when the total amount for the supply does not exceed CZK 10,000, subject to exclusions such as certain intra-EU supplies, distance sales, reverse-charge supplies, and specified excise goods. A foreign-language tax document can still create recordkeeping work because the keeper must provide a Czech translation when the tax administrator requests it.
A one-off invoice tool is enough when you need a single Czech invoice, already know the billable work, and can manually choose the correct VAT rate and payment terms. Public authorities generally pay commercial invoices within 30 calendar days under the EU late-payment framework, while B2B payment periods should not exceed 60 calendar days unless expressly agreed and not grossly unfair to the creditor.
A managed workflow becomes necessary when billable hours, non-billable tasks, custom task rates, member-rate exceptions, and recurring client work feed the invoice. Everhour supports project billing status, task-level non-billable controls, custom task rates, and admin reports for billable time, non-billable time, billable amount, and cost, so invoice totals come from controlled work records instead of rebuilt spreadsheets.

The key fields are seller and buyer identification, tax IDs where assigned, an evidentiary tax-document number, issue date, supply or advance-payment date when different, supply description, unit price, tax base, VAT rate, and VAT amount. For a VAT tax document, the VAT amount must be shown in Czech currency.
VAT belongs on the invoice when the supply is subject to Czech VAT and the seller is required to charge it. Czech VAT uses a 21% standard rate and a 12% reduced rate. The standard rate applies unless the Czech VAT Act provides otherwise for listed goods or services.
A Czech tax document can be paper or electronic. An electronic tax document is one issued and received electronically, and its use requires the recipient's consent. Authenticity, integrity, and readability must be maintained for the retention period, so the delivery method and file storage both matter.
Commercial payment terms should follow the contract and the EU late-payment framework applicable to Member States. Public authorities generally pay commercial invoices within 30 calendar days. B2B payment periods should not exceed 60 calendar days unless expressly agreed and not grossly unfair to the creditor.
Stating VAT only in a foreign currency creates a record problem for a Czech VAT tax document. The VAT amount must be stated in Czech currency. Another common issue is using a simplified tax document above CZK 10,000 or for a supply category excluded from simplified treatment.
Everhour lets admins set project billing status, mark specific tasks as non-billable, use custom task rates, and apply member-rate exceptions. Admin reports can show billable time, non-billable time, billable amount, and cost before invoice preparation.
Track billable and non-billable work before invoice day. Everhour gives teams billing controls and reports that keep Czech invoice totals tied to approved time and rates.
