Carrying cash from Czechia to Slovakia
Two separate rules apply to any cash journey: one where you leave, one where you arrive.
Do you need to declare?
No declaration is required. Czechia and Slovakia are both inside the EU customs area, and the EUR 10,000 rule applies only at the Union's external border: not to travel between member states. Carrying cash between them is treated like a domestic journey.
The two legs
| Leg | Limit | Form | Authority |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leaving Czechia | no declaration | no form | Czechia customs authority (EU cash controls) |
| Entering Slovakia | no declaration | no form | Slovakia customs authority (EU cash controls) |
Czechia and Slovakia are both in the EU customs area, so no cash declaration is required on departure.
No declaration is required on arrival for travel within the EU.
Currencies
Czechia uses CZK; Slovakia uses EUR.
