Notification of non-resident taxpayer income from sources in the Czech Republic

  • profit shares, settlement shares, or shares in the liquidation balance of business corporations, or
  • interest and other similar yields which exceeded CZK 300,000 in any calendar month. 

If the obligation of a taxpayer has been transferred to you by another taxpayer by a written contract in accordance with the law, you are required to attach an appendix to the notification in which you identify the taxpayer who transferred their obligation to you and the corresponding amount of income paid.
