The Supreme Administrative Court issued its opinion on posting of an employee – foreigner from countries out of the EU with a valid work permission on business trips and on necessity to obtain a permission for such a trip (decision 1 As 67/2013 as of 22.8.2013).

In case judged by the Court the employee had valid work permission in the Czech Republic, with place of its performance in Prague, and was sent on a business trip by the employer to a different place (town). According to the administrative authority, which had checked work of the employee, the employer was not allowed to send the employee in this manner, without work permission for the place where he had been sent.

The Court has considered that the Employment Act (as well as any other legal act) from 2009 does not regulate a temporary deployment apart from the place of work specified in the work permission. It is therefore unnecessary to apply for a new work permit for this purpose and employer with employee may agree on business trip according to their will.
