Recognition of Foreign Education and Qualifications

Relevant for applicants who need an official assessment of their foreign education.

Nostrification is a formal process through which foreign education is officially assessed by a Czech public authority (a public university) as equivalent to Czech education.

Once the applicant receives the official recognition certificate (commonly referred to as Nostrification), the certificate can be used at any university or institution in the Czech Republic where proof of completed education is required.
