Why?

Health insurance (zdravotní pojištění) is compulsory in Czechia for everyone who has permanent residence here or is employed here, and also for self-employed persons (OSVČ). Sickness insurance (nemocenské pojištění) is voluntary for the self-employed, and a businessperson pays property or liability insurance only if they want to.
