     Pre-Arrival Checklist

    Before arriving in the Czech Republic as an international student, there are several pre-arrival obligations and tasks you need to complete to ensure a smooth transition and a successful start to your academic journey.

     

    Health and Liability Insurance

    As an international student in the Czech Republic, you must have health insurance coverage for the duration of your stay. The type of health insurance you need depends on your nationality and specific circumstances. 

    • EU Countries: You can use your EHIC (European Health Insurance Card) if you are from an EU country. This entitles you to have free emergency healthcare here in Prague. We suggest you ask your health insurance company which covers medical care, and if necessary, to take out an additional policy in case of injury, serious illness, etc. More information is available here.
    • Non-EU Countries: Students from non-EU countries will submit proof of health/travel medical insurance as a part of their visa application to the respective Czech Embassy/Consulate. More information is available here.

    Liability insurance provides coverage for any accidental damage or harm caused by the insured person to others or their property. A copy of your insurance will be requested by the Deparment of International Relations.

     

    Medical History

    We recommend that you fill the Medical History form before you arrive in the Czech Republic and have it with you in case you will need to visit the UCT Prague doctor during your study stay at UCT Prague.

      

    Travel Arrangements

    Book your flight tickets well in advance to secure the best deals and to ensure you arrive in time.

      

    Cost of Living in Prague

    The official currency of the Czech Republic is the Česká Koruna ( Czech Crown, CZK). We suggest familiarise yourself with the exchange rates and always check the current rate before you exchange money. The cost of living in Prague can vary based on personal lifestyle choices, but overall, it is considered more affordable compared to other major European cities.

    Studying abroad in the Czech Republic can be a rewarding experience, but it is essential to manage your finances wisely to ensure a smooth and enjoyable stay.  You can use this website to compare Prague prices with those in your hometown. For more information, please visit Cost of Living in Prague here. (will be updated soon)

       

    Public Transportation

    Prague has an extensive public transport network rated as one of Europe's best and most reliable. Thanks to public transport, you can reach even the most remote corners of the metropolis quickly and easily.

    • You can use the underground (metro), trams, buses or suburban trains, i.e. public transport (MHD) to travel around Prague. All traffic information, latest news, schedules and travel rules are on the  ebsite of the Prague Public Transit (Dopravní podnik hlavního města Prahy – DPP).

    Request a Buddy

    You might be interested in having a "buddy" (i.e. student volunteer acting as a contact person). Buddies can help you get settled in your new hometown and assist you in several situations; for example, they can pick you up at the airport, accompany you to your residence, show you around the city, and more.

    The Buddy Program is very popular among our international students, so please do not hesitate to apply for your "buddy"  at least three weeks prior to your arrival.

     Buddy is a volunteer programme organised by ESN; it is entirely free.
