Czechia is an EU member with direct access to the Single Market and strong economic links to Germany, Austria, Poland and Slovakia. Its industrial base, skilled workforce and established infrastructure support investment in manufacturing, technology, logistics, research and urban development.
At the same time, the Czech state is introducing new instruments to prepare strategic sites, simplify permitting and support housing development.
The State Investment and Development Company is preparing three Strategic Business Parks in Dolní Lutyně, Cheb, Lazy and other sites. The portfolio includes large greenfield sites and the regeneration of a former mining brownfield. Preparation covers land, permitting and the development of the required transport and utility infrastructure.
The State Investment and Development Company (SIRS) is a state-owned company established to prepare sites for complex strategic investments.
SIRS coordinates land consolidation, technical studies, permitting and infrastructure development in cooperation with the state, regions and municipalities. Its role is focused on projects whose scale and infrastructure requirements require substantial public-sector involvement.
Act No. 416 provides a specific framework for selected strategic investment projects and related infrastructure.
For qualifying production and storage projects in designated areas of at least 45 hectares, the Act introduces procedural rules intended to reduce delays in permitting and subsequent judicial review.
The Building Act combines project siting and construction approval into a single permitting procedure.
It establishes decision deadlines of 30 days for simple structures and 60 days for other projects, subject to the statutory grounds for extension. The process also allows the building authority to obtain certain required statements directly from the relevant authorities.
The strategic sites currently being prepared by SIRS comprise more than 450 hectares. The sites are intended primarily for technologically advanced and infrastructure-intensive investments.
Prague has a new Metropolitan Plan to guide the city’s long-term development.
The Plan creates capacity for new housing, employment and public infrastructure, with a particular focus on brownfields, city-owned land and development within the existing urban area. It also coordinates future development with public transport and other major infrastructure.
Czechia offers a highly stable political and economic landscape. Anchored by active membership in key international organizations, including the EU, NATO, and the OECD, the country provides a secure and predictable business climate.
This macroeconomic stability is validated by consistently high sovereign credit ratings, holding an Aa3 from Moody’s Analytics and an AA- from both Standard & Poor’s and Fitch Ratings for 2026.
Furthermore, Czechia confirms its position as a secure and thriving European market by ranking 8th in the Prosperity Index among EU member states and placing 22nd globally out of 147 countries in the 2025 Safety Index.
