What you need if you are using this service
As an EU citizen/EU family member you must explicitly state that you are terminating your residence in the territory of the Czech Republic. However, if you decide to do so, you must return your residence permit.
Where and how to solve this service
You can report the termination of your residence in the country and send your residence permit to the address of that office of the MOI CR, which has territorial jurisdiction over your registered place of residence (domicile) in the Czech Republic.
In that case, we recommend sending it by registered mail or as an insured item with a statement indicating that you are terminating your residence in the Czech Republic.
You can find the contact information of the offices of DAMP MOI on the website of the Ministry of the Interior.
