People who have no valid Czech citizenship document, for example newborns or holders of very old documents, can request a citizenship certificate. A separate declaration about Czech citizenship is also charged for under specific legal provisions.
Where to apply in Australia
Embassy in Canberra (ACT residents) and Consulate General in Sydney (NSW, QLD, SA, TAS, WA and NT per DFAT listing); honorary consulates in Australia are named by the embassy only as collection points for passports, not for other services.
Contact details for every office are on the page of the embassy and consulates of the Czech Republic.
How to apply
Contact the embassy or consulate to request the certificate; details sit on a subpage not readable here
Fees and processing time
- Official fee: citizenship certificate CZK 600 (AUD 40)
- Official fee: declaration about Czech citizenship CZK 1,000 (AUD 67)
Good to know
Requirements for the certificate were not published on the pages read. Fee amounts come from the Canberra embassy's consular fee PDF headed October 2026 (file dated 9 Oct 2026, fees updated monthly and converted from CZK); the page text had an obvious typo in the exchange-rate line.
