A small number of countries allow a consular marriage between two of their own citizens; whether South Africa is one of them is a question only its consular section can answer, so call <a class=\"eb-tel\" href=\"tel:+420267311114\">267 311 114<\/a> or e-mail <a href=\"mailto:prague.admin@dirco.gov.za\">prague.admin@dirco.gov.za<\/a>. What the mission does do in almost every case is issue or authenticate the paperwork the Czech registry office asks a foreigner for. The whole procedure, venue by venue, is in our guide to <a href=\"https:\/\/praguehints.com\/legal-requirements-for-getting-married-in-the-czech-republic\/\">the legal requirements for getting married in the Czech Republic<\/a>.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details class=\"eb-faq\">\n<summary>Which documents do I need from the Embassy of South Africa to marry in Prague?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"eb-a\">The Czech registry office asks a foreign national for a valid passport, a full birth certificate (the short version is not accepted), a <strong>certificate of no impediment<\/strong> \u2014 the certificate of legal capacity to marry, which is the document your own authorities or your embassy issue \u2014 an affidavit of marital status sworn before a notary, and, if you were married before, the divorce decree or the death certificate of your late spouse. Every foreign document has to be translated into Czech by a court-appointed translator and carry an apostille or consular legalisation. Start three to six months ahead: verification and appointment slots, not the ceremony, are what take the time. To ask which of these papers South Africa issues for its citizens, call <a class=\"eb-tel\" href=\"tel:+420267311114\">267 311 114<\/a> or e-mail <a href=\"mailto:prague.admin@dirco.gov.za\">prague.admin@dirco.gov.za<\/a>.

Two practical points: a mission is a security-controlled building, so ask the consular section in advance whether a photographer may come in and whether their name and ID have to be registered at the door; and if the ceremony itself is at a Czech registry office, ask the <em>matrika<\/em> where the photographer is allowed to stand. We keep a list of <a href=\"https:\/\/praguehints.com\/prague-vacation-photographers-photo-places\/\">photographers working in Prague and the best photo locations<\/a>, a guide to <a href=\"https:\/\/praguehints.com\/prague-proposal-photographer\/\">Prague proposal photography<\/a> for the moment before the paperwork, and a <a href=\"https:\/\/praguehints.com\/prague-photography-guide\/\">city photography guide<\/a> for the portraits you will want afterwards on the Charles Bridge or in Letn\u00e1.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details class=\"eb-faq\">\n<summary>Does the Embassy of South Africa issue Czech visas?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"eb-a\">No. Visas and residence permits for the Czech Republic are issued by <em>Czech<\/em> embassies and consulates abroad and by the Czech Ministry of the Interior \u2014 never by another country&#8217;s mission in Prague. The Embassy of South Africa in Prague works the other way round: it serves citizens of South Africa living in or visiting the Czech Republic, and issues visas and documents for South Africa to everyone else. If you are moving here rather than visiting, our guide to <a href=\"https:\/\/praguehints.com\/living-in-czech-republic\/\">living in the Czech Republic<\/a> covers permits, insurance and costs.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details class=\"eb-faq\">\n<summary>I lost my passport in Prague \u2014 who do I contact?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"eb-a\">Report the loss or theft to the Czech police first and keep the report \u2014 the consular section will ask for it before issuing anything. Then contact the mission: call <a class=\"eb-tel\" href=\"tel:+420267311114\">267 311 114<\/a> or e-mail <a href=\"mailto:prague.admin@dirco.gov.za\">prague.admin@dirco.gov.za<\/a>. Ask for an emergency travel document, which is normally issued for a single journey home. Outside office hours many missions run an emergency duty line; the switchboard message or the website usually gives it, so note the number down before you need it.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details class=\"eb-faq\">\n<summary>Is there a consulate of South Africa outside Prague \u2014 in Brno, Ostrava or Plze\u0148?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"eb-a\">No. South Africa runs a single office for the whole Czech Republic \u2014 the one listed on this page. Other countries do keep honorary consulates in Brno, Ostrava or Plze\u0148; you can check any of them in the <a href=\"https:\/\/praguehints.com\/embassies-in-prague\/\">full directory of missions<\/a>.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details class=\"eb-faq\">\n<summary>How do I dial this number from abroad?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"eb-a\">Czech numbers are written locally in three groups of three digits with no prefix. From abroad dial <strong>+420 267 311 114<\/strong>; from a Czech phone the nine digits on their own are enough. Every number on this page is already a tap-to-call link, so on a phone you can just touch it.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details class=\"eb-faq\">\n<summary>Can the embassy legalise or apostille my documents?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"eb-a\">Usually yes, but only in one direction. A mission certifies signatures and copies for its own citizens and legalises documents issued in its own country. A Czech document that you need to use in South Africa normally has to be apostilled by the Czech authorities first \u2014 the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for administrative documents, the Ministry of Justice for court and notarial ones \u2014 and only then presented to the consular section. Which route your particular paper takes depends on whether both countries are in the Hague Apostille Convention, so call <a class=\"eb-tel\" href=\"tel:+420267311114\">267 311 114<\/a> or e-mail <a href=\"mailto:prague.admin@dirco.gov.za\">prague.admin@dirco.gov.za<\/a> and describe the document before you pay for anything.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"eb-nav\"><a href=\"https:\/\/praguehints.com\/embassies-in-prague\/\">&#8592; All embassies in Prague<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/praguehints.com\/embassies-in-prague\/somalia\/\">\ud83c\uddf8\ud83c\uddf4 Somalia<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/praguehints.com\/embassies-in-prague\/south-sudan\/\">\ud83c\uddf8\ud83c\uddf8 South Sudan<\/a><\/div>\n<p class=\"eb-src\">Source: Diplomatic List of the Diplomatic Protocol, Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Czech Republic, August 26, 2026.

Every number on this page is already a tap-to-call link, so on a phone you can just touch it.\"}}, {\"@type\": \"Question\", \"name\": \"Can the embassy legalise or apostille my documents?\", \"acceptedAnswer\": {\"@type\": \"Answer\", \"text\": \"Usually yes, but only in one direction. A mission certifies signatures and copies for its own citizens and legalises documents issued in its own country. A Czech document that you need to use in South Africa normally has to be apostilled by the Czech authorities first \u2014 the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for administrative documents, the Ministry of Justice for court and notarial ones \u2014 and only then presented to the consular section. Which route your particular paper takes depends on whether both countries are in the Hague Apostille Convention, so call 267 311 114 or e-mail prague.admin@dirco.gov.za and describe the document before you pay for anything.\"}}]}<\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Address: 100 00 Praha 10 &#8211; Vr\u0161ovice, Rusk\u00e1 2156\/65 267 311 114 &nbsp; 272 088 831 E-mail: prague.admin@dirco.gov.za, prague.consular@dirco.gov.za Opening hours: 08.30 &#8211; 16.30 \/Mo-Thur\/; 08.30 &#8211; 14.00 \/Fri\/ Full contact details for the Embassy of South Africa (Republic of South Africa) in Prague: address, phone numbers, e-mail, website, opening hours, consular section and the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":17136,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_seopress_titles_title":"Embassy of South Africa in Prague \u2014 Address, Phone & Hours","_seopress_titles_desc":"Embassy of South Africa in Prague: address 100 00 Praha 10 - Vr\u0161ovice, Rusk\u00e1 2156\/65, phone 267 311 114, consular section opening hours, e-mail and the full l","_seopress_robots_index":"","_seopress_robots_follow":"","_seopress_robots_imageindex":"","_seopress_robots_snippet":"","_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"","_seopress_robots_breadcrumbs":"","_seopress_robots_freeze_modified_date":"","_seopress_robots_custom_modified_date":"","_seopress_robots_canonical":"","_seopress_social_fb_title":"","_seopress_social_fb_desc":"","_seopress_social_fb_img":"","_seopress_social_fb_img_attachment_id":0,"_seopress_social_fb_img_width":0,"_seopress_social_fb_img_height":0,"_seopress_social_twitter_title":"","_seopress_social_twitter_desc":"","_seopress_social_twitter_img":"","_seopress_social_twitter_img_attachment_id":0,"_seopress_social_twitter_img_width":0,"_seopress_social_twitter_img_height":0,"_seopress_redirections_value":"","_seopress_redirections_enabled":"","_seopress_redirections_enabled_regex":"","_seopress_redirections_logged_status":"","_seopress_redirections_param":"","_seopress_redirections_type":0,"_seopress_analysis_target_kw":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-17279","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/praguehints.com\/he\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/17279","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/praguehints.com\/he\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/praguehints.com\/he\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/praguehints.com\/he\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/praguehints.com\/he\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=17279"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/praguehints.com\/he\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/17279\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":17845,"href":"https:\/\/praguehints.com\/he\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/17279\/revisions\/17845"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/praguehints.com\/he\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/17136"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/praguehints.com\/he\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17279"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
