The purpose of the course is to provide rather brief and general and yet professionally oriented introduction to Czech Financial Law with occasional overlaps to the Financial Science. Special emphasis is given to those areas of Financial Law that are connected to the stay, activities, business and investments of foreigners in the Czech Republic. The course will cover both the fiscal and non-fiscal parts of Financial Law as well as the basics of theory of finance and financial law. Focus will be given to Czech tax system and its individual components, direct and indirect taxes, and also customs duties. The course will also cover the financial system, banking and insurance, in particular their public-law aspects.

The course shows in particular examples of Czech legal institutions and relations (direct and indirect taxes, customs duties, financial system, banking and insurance) how such financial‐law institutions and relations are shaped on a national level with a view on more or less extensive harmonization stemming from the EU law. After accomplishing this course, the students will be able to comprehend better the import and functioning of mentioned selected financial institutions in the European Union and its member states.
