Civil Law Notaries.
What can a notary do for an expat, or Czech for that matter, in the Czech Republic? That is easily answered; they offer service in three primary areas, civil law, business law and civil procedure. Hence they deal with inheritance procedures, drafting of civil law contracts, authenticating documents, family law acts and a number of other legal actions.
Who are they and where can they found? The last question, however, as naïve it may seem at first, is very valid in the Czech Republic. Since here notaries are somewhat a very exclusive and elusive branch of entrepreneurs.
Under the Commercial Code notaries are considered entrepreneurs but they do have public authority in certain areas as well invested into them by the state. This unique status finally entails specific rules and responsibilities which make the previous question of how to find them indeed quite interesting. Seeing that notaries are, for instance, not allowed to advertise their services – hence no websites – and the fact that even the size and the way their door sign looks is predefined. All this adds up to this, you might have to go on a ‘notary hunt’ or just read on…
