| Description | In this contribution we will address the basic underlying principles of recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments in the Czech Republic. The area of recognition and enforcement is part of private international law. This premise alone sometimes presents challenges for competent national authorities who are in charge of dealing with foreign judgments in their territory. Nevertheless, the processes correspond to each other. It is important to distinguish the differences between them and to apply them in the relevant order using the relevant instruments. Our focus in this contribution will be, in particular, the recognition and enforcement of judgments coming to the Czech Republic from third, non-Member States of the European Union (EU). We will analyse the relevant Czech private international law rules and procedural rules on enforcement in the Czech procedural codes. Furthermore, the necessary information concerning EU legal regulations will be included. Particular Czech legal instruments will also be compared with their EU legal counterparts. |
