Posture describes what an economy is doing; it is not a rating and never ranks countries. Each input is read against the country’s own history and against every other economy that year. An axis shows a score only after passing a back-test fixed before any result was computed. Method and back-test.

Country Schemas

Where Czechia is in its cycles

Where Czechia sits in eight long cycles, each read from published statistics against a method fixed before any reading was computed. A stage describes; it is not a rating, and no stage is better or worse than another.

All Country Schemas · How they work

Passport reach

Where a Czechia passport opens doors

The share of world GDP, outside Czechia itself, in the economies whose published rules let a holder of this passport in, as of October 2026. Palanor records the rules of destinations holding 88% of world GDP, from each government’s own list, and weights them by World Bank GDP for 2025. Rank is among 199 passports.

Visit

65.7%

rank 41 of 199

short stays without a visa arranged in advance; 44 destinations in full.

Work

36.6%

rank 5 of 199

the right to work (free movement in full; treaty and working-holiday routes at half); 30 destinations in full, 6 at half.

Live

19.1%

rank 21 of 199

a right to reside by nationality; 30 destinations in full.

Recorded changes

Reach is shown here and not weighted into Country Strength: it rewards membership of a free-movement area or a treaty more than the strength of an economy. Entry is always at the border officer’s discretion, and conditions (length of stay, fees, age limits) vary. Method, sources and the full ranking: Passports and citizenship.

Palanor calculation from each destination government's published rules; GDP weights from the World Bank (CC BY 4.0), one year for the whole line, so it moves only when a list changes.

GDP by expenditure

What Czechia’s economy runs on

In 2025, household spending was 47.4% of GDP, government consumption 20.0%, investment 26.8% and net exports +5.8% (exports 67.0%, imports 61.1%).

IMF World Economic Outlook

The IMF’s outlook for Czechia

The latest year before the October 2026 edition (often still an IMF estimate) and the IMF’s own projections. These are the IMF’s published forecasts, shown as published; Palanor does not project them further. Since the previous edition the IMF cut its growth forecast for this year by 0.4 percentage points (Palanor calculation).
