The land cadastre (Katastr nemovitostí) of Czech Republic is under the jurisdiction of the Czech Department of Geodesy and Cadastre (Český úřad zeměměřický a katastrální).
The Czech department of geodesy and cadastre is a central state authority directly subordinate to the government of Czech Republic.
The Cadastre is a public land register database which comprises the list of land register of the country (with information pertaining to its inventory, geodetic and geographic characteristics).
The Cadastre maintains record of property and other rights related to real estate.
The Cadastre is used with a view to protect property rights of people, accrual of taxes, protection of environment and cultural heritage of Czech Republic.
The base territorial unit in the Cadastre is cadastral territory (katastrální území). The whole country is divided into cadastral territories. Each land register object within a cadastral territory has its own unique serial number (číslo popisné) which together with an ordinary (tentative) number is displayed on the facade of Czech buildings. “Cadastral” plates are of red colour, and tentative plates – of blue colour. When specifying address, as a rule, both numbers are specified simultaneously. However, only a serial number is used in the Cadastre.
Land plots in the cadastre also have their own unique number – land plot number (Parcelní číslo).
Alteration of rights to a land plot is carried out through a “contribution” procedure (vklad). It is preceded by a “proposal”(návrh) – properly submission of documents to a cadastral office. After a “proposal” specially authorized officials review documents (procedure - řízení). Depending on the results of examination the “contribution” procedure is either permitted or rejected.
The administrative structure of the Cadastre consists of cadastral departments (Katastrální úřad) and cadastral offices (Katastrální pracoviště). There are 14 cadastral departments and 94 cadastral offices in Czech Republic. Besides, 7 cadastral inspectorates operate. Apart from departments, offices and inspectorates, the department of geodesy and cadastre comprises the research institute of geodesy, cartography and topography.

Apostilled extracts from Czech Republic
Czech Republic joined the Hague Convention on simplified legalization of documents on June 23, 1998, 2006. On March 16, 1999 the Convention came into force.
Thus, documents issued in Czech Republic are subject to legalization based on the apostilling procedure, after certified translation such documents acquire full legal force on the territory of all other Hague Convention Member States.
As a rule of thumb, apostillation of extracts takes about two weeks.
