“We have decided on the tolerance of invalid driving licenses in an emergency situation in the Czech Republic. If your document expired during the current state of emergency, you can continue driving, the document is considered valid and there are no fines, ”said the Ministry of Transport.

“Provided that the period of validity of the documents (driving license, driver’s professional license) has expired during the state of emergency, these documents shall be regarded as valid, resp. Holders of these documents will not be penalized in misdemeanor proceedings for the performance of activities carried out with a document that has lost its validity during the state of emergency, ”the ministry stated in the methodological instruction.

Expired driving licenses could be extended until 31 March. The measure has yet to be approved by the European Commission, with which the Ministry of Transport is negotiating.

Earlier, the deadline for mandatory visits to the technical inspection station (STK) was extended by seven months. Similarly, some documents that expired during the spring emergency were extended.
