Czechia: how to write an address

Address verification puts every address into the postal form of the country and checks it against the national address register: street, house number, postcode, coordinates. Here you'll find how to write an address there, what we check and three before-and-after examples.

How address verification and duplicate detection work.

What an address looks like

House number·after the street (“Hauptstraße 5”)
Postcode·123 45; the country prefix in front (D-, F-, CH-) is removed
City·in capitals, in its local name
Country·country line and ISO code, in the reader's language

A Czech address has two numbers: the building number (“č.p.”, číslo popisné, unique within the municipality) and the street number (“č.o.”, číslo orientační), written with a slash, building first then street. The national register identifies the building by the first, and in postal form the street type stays lower case (“náměstí”, “ulice”). The postcode is in two groups, “110 00”.

What we verify

Postcode·confirmed or filled in by the register, in the country's format
Coordinates·latitude and longitude of the house number, with the precision declared
Autocomplete·the street completes as you type, from the register; the house number and the postcode come with the selection (API)

Before and after

Three addresses written the way people write them — abbreviated, without postcode, in lower case — and how they come out: public buildings and streets of the city centre, verified down to the house number.

václavské náměstí 776, praha → Václavské náměstí č.p. 776/10
110 00 PRAHA postcode filled in · street written in full · coordinates of the house number
mariánské nám. 2, 11000 praha → Mariánské náměstí č.p. 2/2
110 00 PRAHA street written in full · coordinates of the house number
nám. svobody 72, 602 00 BRNO → náměstí Svobody č.p. 72/8
602 00 BRNO street written in full · coordinates of the house number

With the API

The same endpoint as every country: country_code is enough. The response carries the address in postal form, the outcome with the changes, and where the register is in service the coordinates, the municipality code and the district. Everything in the API documentation.

Frequently asked questions

Do you also verify addresses that are in a file?

Yes. In batch jobs a column with the country is enough, or the country set for the whole file: every row comes back in the country's postal form, with the outcome beside it and, where the register is in service, verified down to the house number.

What happens if an address is not in the register?

The outcome flags it. If the street exists and the house number does not, it points to the house number; if the street is not found in the municipality, the address still comes out in the country's postal form, with the warning.

Where do the data come from?

From the national address register, published as open data by the country's mapping or statistics agency, which we use under the licence it requires: Zdroj: ČÚZK — RÚIAN (CC BY 4.0). The register is checked every night and reloaded when the source changes.
