The Permanent Representation in Brussels serves as the primary liaison between Czech civil administration and EU institutions. The diplomats at the Permanent Representation negotiate at the meetings of 150 working groups. Over 2,000 meetings take place over each six-month period. In cooperation with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Office of the Government and other ministries, the Permanent Representation prepares over 30 formal Councils of Ministers and several European Councils each semester. European Councils, ie. summits of the EU heads of states and governments, determine the Union's strategic development.

The Commission's Representations perform various functions, including connecting with national, regional and local authorities: organising visits of the President and the Commissioners; providing the Commission with political information and analysis; maintaining media relations; communicating to various audiences.

Czechia joined the European Union in 2004 and is currently preparing to adopt the euro.
