Today is the latest deadline for submitting an electronic income tax return. What to do if you can’t file your tax return today? And how to file a tax return anyway? When is the deadline for submitting reports to the CSSA and health insurance companies?
Today, May 2, 2024, is the latest deadline for submitting an electronic tax return. Another option is to submit a tax return on Monday, July 1, 2024 during a mandatory audit (or with a tax advisor).
We remind you that self-employed persons must declare taxes exclusively electronically
What should I do if I do not have time to file my tax return by May 2, 2024?
A release period applies to the tax return 5 working days, by which you can be late without penalty. You can file your tax return without any penalties until May 10, 2024. However, do not rely on this option and file your tax return as soon as possible.
After this deadline, the tax authority will start imposing penalties in the amount of 0.05% of the tax paid (or 0.01% of the tax loss) for each day of delay. The maximum penalty is 5% of the specified tax or CZK 300,000.

You can fill out the forms on the My Taxes portal or on the website of the online tax office.
You can log in to the My Taxes portal through the Citizen Identity (eGovernment mobile key, bank identity, MojeID), data box or ID card with a chip. You can have it pre-filled, you can also easily save and process the online form here, and you can continue filling it out at any time.

IN as part of your tax return, don’t forget to fill in the Request for refund of overpayment so that the tax office can pay you the overpayment or tax bonus.
Address the tax return to the local tax authority at the place of permanent residence (it does not matter the address of the headquarters or branch of the company where you work). All necessary attachments must be attached to the tax return, for example to prove tax discounts.
By when will you receive the arrears? By when to pay assessed income tax?
The tax office has a deadline refund of the overpayment within 30 days of submitting the tax return. If this does not happen, contact your local tax authority.
If you have income tax arrears or income tax itself, you must pay it together with the submission of the tax return.
By when to submit reports on income and expenses for the health insurance company and OSSZ
An overview of income and expenses must be submitted to the District Social Security Administration (OSSZ) and the health insurance company within 1 month after submitting the income tax return to your tax office.
Reports on income and expenses you can submit electronically or by paper in physical form.
