MONEY MATTERS

  • The cost of living in the Czech Republic is much lower than in the old EU member states and you will be able to live comfortably without spending large sums.

  • Bank machines are generally the easiest and cheapest way to manage money here, and the Brno city centre features numerous conveniently located bank machines.

  • Foreign currency can be exchanged at any bank, though you might check around which one gives the best rate, since these can vary a little. The small exchange booths in the centre of Brno are said to offer good exchange rates.
