Czech Republic. Made with skill. Built to connect.
River towns and castle skylines. Glass shaped by hand and industries shaped by knowledge. Discover a country where making, learning and a strong sense of place meet.
The Czech Republic, also known as Czechia, is a landlocked country in Central Europe. It borders Germany, Poland, Slovakia and Austria. Prague is the capital, Czech is the official language, and the currency is the Czech koruna.
Bohemia and Moravia bring different landscapes and local traditions to the national picture. Historic towns, cultivated countryside and industrial centres sit within a country connected to wider European networks.
The Uganda connection includes honorary representation in Kampala and a documented business forum in Prague. These provide practical points of entry for commercial and institutional conversations.

Country & institutions
Two offices, distinct responsibilities.
President Petr Pavel is Head of State. Prime Minister Andrej Babiš heads the government. The official Presidency and Government portals describe their roles and current public activities.
Glassworks in Harrachov
Industry & innovation
A making tradition with a technical future.
CzechInvest presents manufacturing, technology centres, research and business-support services among its areas of work. A useful enquiry connects a specific need with a capable supplier, investor or research institution.
Bohemian glassware
Culture & craftsmanship
A material transformed by skill.
Glass can hold the evidence of both inherited technique and an individual design. Handmade production connects knowledge, teamwork and attention to the stages that turn a material into a finished object.

Towns & countryside
Let the landscape set a different pace.
Historic towns and cultivated countryside offer another view of the country beyond its capital. The national visitor portal introduces regions, local histories and practical ways to explore them.
Czech Republic & Uganda
A relationship with practical points of contact.
Diplomatic relations with the Czech Republic date to 1993, following earlier Czechoslovak links. Honorary representation in Kampala and the 2024 business forum in Prague give the relationship a local and commercial setting.

Representation in Kampala
The Foreign Ministry identifies Stephen Mpuuga Kaboyo as Honorary Consul and publishes the office’s contacts. The post works within the Embassy in Nairobi’s consular network.
Universities and specialist organisations offer possible partners for a focused proposal. Begin with a shared subject and an outcome the participating institutions can support.
Harrachov · A material and manufacturing tradition
Engineering · Production · Applied knowledge
A problem to solve. A capability to find. A result to build.
An equipment or technical enquiry needs more than a product name. Explain the setting, operating conditions and the result the organisation is trying to achieve.
CzechInvest provides information for investors and business development. A supplier or technology discussion should identify the right commercial counterpart and the support required after delivery.
Manufacturing & engineeringDescribe the operating requirement
Set out the product or process, capacity, standards and environment. Consider compatibility, training, maintenance and parts alongside the initial equipment specification.
Prepare the technical brief.
Confirm installation and support.
Agree responsibilities after delivery.
Food & agricultural systemsFollow the value chain
A proposal can focus on production, processing, storage or quality systems. Identify the actual constraint and the local resources available before selecting a solution.
Map the product and intended market.
Specify quality and capacity.
Include skills and maintenance needs.
Research & specialist servicesChoose a question with a useful outcome
An institutional project needs suitable partners, a defined problem and agreement about resources. Keep proposed research distinct from an advertised funded programme.
Name the institutions and responsible teams.
Agree the expected output.
Confirm budget, supervision and recognition.
Preparing a commercial approachMake the first exchange informative
Introduce the organisation, requirement, intended use and proposed contribution. For goods, establish the relevant standards, route, commercial terms and receiving arrangements.
Verify the proposed counterpart.
Record delivery and support assumptions.
Use the competent authority for formal procedures.
Prepare the enquiry
A precise brief makes room for a useful answer.
State the problem, the capability needed and the decision you are preparing to make. Ask which institution or business should receive the proposal.
Prague is one introduction. A smaller river town, a glassworks or a vineyard landscape reveals another part of the country’s character.
Give a region time to tell its own story. Local architecture, work and traditions make the distance between two places more interesting than a route on a map.
Bridges, river views and layers of architecture make the capital a starting point for understanding the country’s urban history. The national tourism portal introduces places and practical visitor information.
Sandstone formations and wooded terrain bring a different scale to the country profile. Check current local routes and visitor arrangements when planning a visit.
The furnace. The practiced hand. The finished form.
Handmade glass production depends on a sequence of skilled decisions. Shaping and decoration bring together individual judgement and the work of people who understand the stages around them.
UNESCO recognised this shared tradition in 2023 through a multinational inscription that includes Czechia. Its value lies in the knowledge passed on as well as the objects produced.
Look at the institution and exact course before choosing the destination. Teaching language, admission requirements, costs and recognition shape the decision.
Study information
A subject to pursue. An institution to assess.
The official Study in Czechia portal introduces universities, study programmes and practical planning. Confirm the programme details, application procedure and language requirements with the institution.
Scholarship and exchange eligibility varies by programme and nationality. Check the published call, full costs, recognition in Uganda and the immigration procedure for the intended activity.
Before accepting an offer
Verify the exact award, institution, teaching language, fees and funding conditions. Confirm professional recognition where relevant and establish the responsible visa or residence channel. No scholarship entitlement is created by this page.
Short visits, longer stays and document services follow their own official procedures
Visa & residence enquiries
The purpose. The intended stay. The right procedure.
Use the Embassy in Nairobi’s current guidance to identify the procedure for your passport, residence and intended activity. Confirm jurisdiction, appointment arrangements and supporting documents before applying.
The honorary office is a local contact point. Establish the assistance it provides and whether your request needs to be handled by the Embassy or another competent authority.
State your nationality, country of residence, purpose and intended dates. Ask which authority handles the procedure and which documents are required.
Can I visit during the published office hours?
The official directory lists Monday to Friday, 10:00 to 12:30. Contact the office to confirm an appointment and the assistance available.
Where should documents be authenticated or submitted?
Use the Embassy’s current instructions for the relevant document and issuing country. Confirm originals, translations, authentication and submission arrangements before sending anything.
