OSVČ BOOKKEEPING · CZECH REPUBLIC
OSVČ bookkeeping without reconstructing the year.
We process records through the year, keep open items visible and prepare usable inputs for the annual return. Tax records, full accounting, VAT and identified-person work are not blurred into one undefined package.
- 01
For sole traders, freelancers and platform income
- 02
Tax records or accounting according to the actual regime
- 03
Historical cleanup reviewed separately
WHAT THE SERVICE CONTROLS
Not every OSVČ keeps the same records or files the same forms.
Depending on the real setup, an OSVČ may keep tax records, full accounts or use another statutory expense method. We first check the activity, income sources, expense method and previous filing status.
The annual return, ČSSZ and health-insurance overviews and any VAT or identified-person work depend on the underlying data, but they are not automatically included in the lowest monthly price. The final scope is confirmed in writing.
SCOPE
Six layers that keep an OSVČ file coherent.
The exact combination depends on activity, document volume and registrations.
Multiple income sources
Invoices, platforms and other business income are brought into one reviewable flow.
Monthly control
Missing records, unclear transactions and decisions needed from you remain visible instead of disappearing into the year-end.
Annual-filing readiness
Ongoing records are prepared so the annual return does not depend on rebuilding the whole year at once.
ČSSZ and health-insurance follow-up
Overviews are handled according to the actual duty, deadline and filing route rather than a universal assumption.
Separate VAT and IO layer
For foreign clients, ads, software or platforms we check the actual transaction; a brand or platform name alone does not determine the regime.
VISIBLE OUTPUT
Processed records plus a clear view of what is still missing.
Processed period
Documents and movements handled within the scope confirmed in advance.
Open-items list
Missing documents, unclear payments and questions that prevent the period from being closed.
Filing map
A visible list of agreed recurring and annual steps for the current regime.
Year-end continuity
Usable records for the annual return and relevant overviews without collecting the same history again.
FIT
A recurring service for clean records; a controlled review for unclear history.
Separating the two at onboarding keeps hidden cleanup out of the monthly fee.
A good fit when
- 01
you want a regular document routine and a visible status
- 02
you invoice Czech, EU or platform clients
- 03
you need to switch accountants during the year
- 04
you want ordinary bookkeeping separated from one-off corrections
A different first step is needed when
- 01
several periods are missing or nobody knows what was filed
- 02
you need an individual tax strategy or legal opinion
- 03
you expect representation without written authority and responsibility
PROCESS
From a short brief to a recurring routine in four steps.
Do not send sensitive documents in the first form; the structure of the case is enough.
- 01
Send the basic facts
Business ID, activity, document volume, income sources, expense method and VAT/IO status.
- 02
We review the scope
We distinguish recurring records, annual work and any historical cleanup.
- 03
You receive a written proposal
It states what we handle, what we need and the price of the confirmed scope.
- 04
The routine starts
We set document handover, open-item control and the agreed filing workflow.
PRICES
One entry price; everything else follows the actual work.
Clean monthly records, annual closing and historical reconstruction are different scopes.
On a smaller screen, scroll the table horizontally →
| Scope | Price | Typical fit |
|---|---|---|
| Monthly OSVČ bookkeeping | from 990 CZK / month | A small, clean document flow with a predictable monthly routine. |
| Annual return and insurance overviews | scoped separately | Annual closing from complete, usable records; unusual history is scoped separately. |
| Takeover or historical cleanup | fixed quote after review | Missing periods, inconsistent records and overdue filings are reviewed before a price is confirmed. |

No introductory call is required. We separate recurring work, annual filings and any historical cleanup, then confirm the price in writing.
FAQ
Common questions about Czech OSVČ bookkeeping.
01 What does monthly OSVČ bookkeeping include?
The exact scope follows the regime. The baseline is agreed processing of documents and transactions, visibility of missing records and usable ongoing data. Annual filings, insurance overviews, VAT/IO work and older periods are included only if the written proposal says so.
02 Does every OSVČ keep full accounts?
No. Depending on the actual setup, an OSVČ may keep tax records, full accounts or use another statutory expense method. We therefore check the activity and regime first instead of applying one workflow to everyone.
03 How much does the recurring service cost?
A small, clean document flow starts from 990 CZK per month. Price depends on document quality and volume, accounts and currencies, income sources, VAT/IO status and the condition of previous periods. Scope and price are confirmed in writing.
04 Is the annual tax return included in 990 CZK?
Not automatically. The annual return and relevant insurance overviews are a separate layer unless the proposal explicitly includes them. This prevents a vague package that becomes more expensive later.
05 Can you take over during the year?
Yes. We first check the latest closed period, available data and filing status. Current months are separated from corrections or reconstruction and each part is confirmed separately.
06 What if I have foreign clients, software or platform income?
Those transactions are checked separately. A foreign element does not automatically create one particular VAT status. Depending on the contractual party and actual supply, identified-person, VAT or another reporting treatment may be relevant.
07 Can everything be handled online?
Yes, a standard scope can be organised remotely across the Czech Republic. The first brief goes through the form; a secure document channel is agreed after scope confirmation.
08 Does Ganado provide tax or legal advice?
Ganado provides accounting processing, administrative preparation and technical support for agreed filings. Individual tax strategy, legal opinions and regulated representation belong to an authorised tax adviser or lawyer.
