Background
SUZ, the Refugee Facilities Administration of the Ministry of the Interior, runs the state asylum facilities in Czechia. AIDA's 2025 update says reception centres house newly arrived applicants until the first procedures are complete: an identity check, lodging the application and a medical examination. Until the examination is done, applicants may not leave the centre freely. AIDA adds that from 2018 Zastávka has also worked as a residential centre for some applicants, and that applicants with disabilities are usually accommodated here for the entire procedure.
Across the five centres AIDA lists, 134 people were counted at the end of 2024 against 923 places. That total includes the airport reception centre, which this site lists with detention.

official source
The Refugee Facilities Administration (SUZ) runs the state asylum facilities and also detention. Capacity and occupancy come from the AIDA Czech Republic 2025 update (June 2026), which received them from SUZ: capacity is for 2025, and occupancy by centre is for the end of 2024 because figures for 2025 were not available. Each is dated on this page. Capacity is a number of places and not a headcount, and the occupancy figures are not current. Addresses are from SUZ's page for each facility, and positions are derived from those addresses. The cost published is for the whole agency, CZK 939.8m in 2025, detention and other services included, so no site shows a cost. Incidents come from news outlets, the police or official reports, each named and dated, with the stage that was reported. A facility that works like detention is labelled so.
