Source Documents

What the authority requires

The points below are taken directly from the official source for the Czech Republic Long-term Business Visa (Doing Business (IPC)) route. Each one is recorded with a source identifier and a locator so it can be traced back to the original document. Where the source is silent on a point, the engine records UNKNOWN instead of inferring an answer.

  • The authority requires that insurance is mandatory.
  • The authority requires that the medical coverage meets the stated minimum of at least 400000.
  • The authority requires that the policy carries no deductible.

How we evaluate

Every requirement is compared against the documented specification of each insurance product using an automated rule engine. A product is marked GREEN for a requirement only when product evidence explicitly satisfies it; a conflict produces RED; and absent evidence produces UNKNOWN rather than a guess. The route status is the combination of its per-requirement outcomes.

  • Rule insurance.mandatory == Yes GREEN on a match, RED on a conflict, UNKNOWN if unproven.
  • Rule insurance.min_coverage >= 400000 GREEN at or above the threshold, RED below it, UNKNOWN if unstated.
  • Rule insurance.no_deductible == Yes GREEN on a match, RED on a conflict, UNKNOWN if unproven.

How each compliance status is decided for this route

GREEN means every recorded requirement is satisfied by product evidence. RED means at least one requirement is contradicted by the product evidence. YELLOW means the evidence is partial: some requirements are met while others lack full proof. UNKNOWN means a requirement exists but the product evidence does not address it, so no claim is made. NOT_REQUIRED means the authority does not impose an insurance requirement for the route, which is itself an evidence-based finding drawn from the official document. A GREEN result reflects the evidence on the snapshot date and is not an assurance of a visa outcome, which always rests with the issuing authority.

Reading the evidence and snapshots

Each requirement above links to a primary source through a source identifier and a locator (for example a page number, article, or section). The underlying documents are listed under Source Documents and are stored alongside this dataset so the wording can be checked directly. Results are tied to a dated snapshot (2026-06-20): a deep link to a past snapshot returns the same verdict even if the authority later changes its rules, which keeps every decision reproducible and auditable.

Proof package checklist

Before applying for this route, prepare the following so the policy can be checked against each requirement:

  • A policy certificate that states the coverage limits, any deductible or co-payment, and the covered period.
  • Written confirmation of the insurer’s status where the route requires authorization in a specific country.
  • Documentation that the coverage spans the full authorized stay rather than a partial term.
  • The official source wording for the route, so each clause can be matched to the requirements above.

Common questions

How much insurance coverage does the Czech long-term business visa require?
The Official Information Portal for Foreigners states the coverage amount must be at least EUR 400,000 per insured event, with no cost sharing by the insured person.

Why do SafetyWing, World Nomads and Genki Traveler show RED?
Their documented limits convert to below EUR 400,000, and a deductible (cost sharing) conflicts with the no-cost-sharing rule, so the engine marks them RED rather than accepting them.

Why are the Spanish health policies UNKNOWN rather than GREEN?
Their policy documents do not state an overall coverage limit to compare against the EUR 400,000 threshold, so the engine records UNKNOWN instead of assuming they clear it.
