3) Matrika (Registry Office)

At the Registry Office, you can get help with all procedures handled by this office, including but not limited to:
- Issuing birth certificates
- Applications related to marriage
Please, remember though that this service is only available for the agenda, for which you do not need court interpreter. If you do (for example, if you are an unmarried couple coming to pick up birth certificate), you still need to arrange this type of interpreting yourself.
Make an Appointment
Book an interpreter in advance. This ensures an assistant will be available for you at a specified time.
It’s possible to ask for help even without booking in advance. If you do not mind a possible wait, you can come directly to the office and simply ask for a Brno Expat Centre interpreting assistant — you will be assisted as soon as possible.
Free Service for You
This interpreting service is provided to you free of charge as a courtesy of the City of Brno. You do not need to pay anything to use this support.
Our Goal
We hope this service will make your communication with authorities smoother, clearer, and less stressful, so you can handle official matters with greater confidence and ease. And of course, at other governmental and municipal authorities, our standard interpreting services remain available as before, provided they are arranged in advance. Contact us for more information.
