Failure to rectify defects in submissions in respect of continuation after the entrepreneur’s death

If the continuing person fails to rectify defects in the submission, the trade licensing office will not register information on the continuing person in the trade licensing register. No notification is issued of the fact that registration in the trade licensing register has not been made.

If the time limit of 3 months specified by law for notifying the continuation of a deceased entrepreneur’s trade by other authorised persons has not expired, and the same trade is not continued by another authorised person, the trade licensing office will wait until the expiry of the above time limit and then it will register the information that deceased entrepreneur’s trade authorisation has terminated in the trade licensing register. Within 30 days from the date of registration in the trade licensing register, it will notify the fact that the trade authorisation has terminated to other administrative authorities specified in Section 48 or Section 55 of the Trade Licensing Act:

• The tax authority that has local competence and carries out income tax administration
• The Czech Statistical Office
• The Social Security Administration that has local competence according to the entrepreneur’s domicile or registered office, in the case of a foreign person according to the place of permitted residence, registered office or location of a branch plant
• The relevant health insurance company, if known to it, or the organisation that maintains a register of all insured persons under general health insurance
• The court that maintains the register in the case of persons who are registered in public registers
• In the case of foreign natural persons, the Ministry of the Interior
