Shops and restaurants reopen; night-time curfew ends

Shops, restaurants and services in the Czech Republic reopen on Thursday, as the country moves from level four to level three on the government’s colour-coded PES system of Covid-19 measures.

In addition, a night-time curfew comes to an end and shops are allowed to reopen on Sundays. Museums and galleries can open with a limited capacity and individual indoor sports activities can resume.

Despite the easing of measures aimed at curbing the spread of Covid-19, some restrictions will remain in place. Restaurants and bars will be allowed to open until 10 pm and to occupy half of their total capacity and no more than four people will be allowed at a table.

A maximum of 50 people may gather outside and 10 people inside.
