Best VPN for the Czech Republic in 2026 Tested

More than a million foreigners live in the Czech Republic, and many still rely on TV and news services from abroad—often using shared Wi‑Fi at cafés, dorms, and Prague’s airport. Czech law also requires phone and internet operators to retain records of every connection, making privacy tools more relevant. In October, testing compared Czech-server VPNs using speed checks on UK, US, and Japanese servers and streaming trials across 14 services. NordVPN ranked first, averaging just 7.8% speed loss, while Proton VPN placed second for privacy but averaged 10.2% and couldn’t unblock Hulu or Pluto TV. ExpressVPN topped for home TV setups and reliable streaming.
