Organization of a weekly market


If a weekly market is organized, the so-called determination of the competent authority is necessary, provided that the so-called market privileges (e.g. exemption from restrictions on shop opening rights, exemption from the provisions of the Industrial Code on the standing and itinerant trade, relaxation of working time regulations, especially on Sundays and public holidays and certain restrictions of youth employment protection law) are sought for this event.

A determination entitles to the execution of the respective event. In the case of the fixing of a weekly market, the determination obliges the organizer to carry it out.

The determination regulates the subject, place, time and opening hours of the events concerned.

Information on the possibility of scheduling several events at the same time or a permanent event is provided by the competent authority.
