- There are three main concepts in Czech law which exclude criminal & civil liability based on self-defense. "Utmost necessity" (krajní nouze) may be invoked against a danger other than an attack by another person, such as a raging dog. "Necessary self defense" (nutná obrana) may be invoked against attack by another person, be it a direct assault or a dog ordered to attack. The third concept is called "eligible use of a gun" (oprávněné užití zbraně) and generally may not be invoked by civilians, but rather by police or other officers. Czech law does not include specific provisions regarding self-defense with use of a weapon. Same rules apply in case of unarmed defense or defense with any type of weapon. The Ministry of the Interior officially recommends carrying non-lethal weapons such as pepper sprays, paralyzers, or gas pistols as means of self-defense. Unlike in most other European countries, Czech citizens have the right to keep and bear firearms for personal protection, for which they must first obtain a shall-issue license. (en)

- It is not a necessary defence, if the defence was obviously grossly disproportionate to the manner of the attack. (en)
- An act otherwise criminal, by which a person averts an imminent or ongoing attack to an interest protected by the Criminal Code, shall not be considered as a criminal offence. (en)
