What our expats are saying

  • Consuelo Vispo

    Since I came to Ostrava in August 2021 I was happy to find the OEC. Thanks to them, I not only got good help with all the necessary procedures when moving to another country, but I also got to know the great team, be part of the events they organised and meet a lot of people. Having this support made it so much easier for me to consider Ostrava as my new home. They are always kind and ready to help or give advice and I am always very grateful.

    Spoke with Tony for some help on my residence renewal. He is very knowledgeable, prompt in communication and friendly. We discussed elaborately and he understood my problem and provided appropriate recommendations. I am very pleased and will be coming back. I definitely recommend the Ostrava Expat Center to any foreigner in the region!
