  "title": "Czech Republic National (Long-Stay, Category D) Visa Application",
  "description": "Give the details for a Czech national long-stay (category D) visa application: the entry visa a non-EU/EEA/Swiss national needs before travelling to the Czech Republic for a stay exceeding the 90-day Schengen short-stay limit, for purposes including employment, business, study, family visit, or invitation. This document models the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' (Ministerstvo zahraničních věcí, MZV) own bilingual Czech/English 'Žádost o udělení dlouhodobého víza' / 'Application for long-stay visa' form (ŘSCP č. 1/2010), submitted at a Czech embassy or consulate. Although this form's opening item sequence follows the same Schengen-harmonized numbering convention as other EU member states' national long-stay visa forms already in this registry, it diverges after item 9 with fields not present in those: an unconditional (not minor-gated) parents block, a distinct 'employer after entry' field, a structured 'previous stay in the Czech Republic longer than 3 months' block, a Czech-specific 'executive manager' purpose option citing Act No. 513/1991 Coll. (the Czech Commercial Code) verbatim, and an inviting-person/company block with its own address and contact fields — see VERIFICATION.md for the full field-by-field comparison against the already-modelled German and Polish/Spanish national-visa templates. It does not model the Schengen (short-stay) visa form, which this registry already covers via fr/france-visas/schengen-visa-application and which the Czech Republic's own equivalent form was independently confirmed this cycle to duplicate field-for-field. It does not submit the application; the live source is always authoritative.",

    "notes": "GOV-1819: GovSchema Standard Research cycle. Gives the Czech Republic its 3rd vertical (Visa), after Business Formation (GOV-1804, cz/mpo) and DMV (GOV-1804 follow-up, cz/md). Candidates screened in parallel this cycle: CZ Taxes (financnisprava.gov.cz Form 25 5405 plus its field-by-field Pokyny guide — a genuine, strong, unauthenticated candidate, ~85 numbered lines across a base return and four annexes, left as a strong open backlog candidate for a future cycle given its larger scope) and CZ National ID / CZ Passport (both confirmed dead ends: mv.gov.cz and portal.gov.cz both state explicitly that citizens do not complete a paper application form for either process — an office-generated printout is produced and signed in person once biometrics are captured, matching this registry's established in-person-only pattern for several other jurisdictions). This document was picked over Taxes for this cycle given its smaller, more tractable scope and because it closes out a full vertical-diversity milestone rather than adding a second Business/DMV-adjacent document. Sourced directly from mzv.gov.cz (HTTP 200, no login/CAPTCHA/WAF gate); the PDF uses a custom font encoding with no ToUnicode CMap, so the text layer is unreadable by direct extraction — every field below was read from a high-resolution page render (pdfjs-dist + node-canvas) and cross-checked twice against the rendered image, not the garbled text layer. A companion Czech Schengen (short-stay) visa PDF was also examined and confirmed a field-for-field duplicate of fr/france-visas/schengen-visa-application's harmonized template — not modelled, consistent with this registry's treatment of Poland's, Spain's, Portugal's, and Switzerland's equivalent Schengen forms. See VERIFICATION.md for the full field-by-field source mapping and every disclosed scope decision."
