   How to calculate whether to submit medical checkup extension letter

   In case you are not able to submit a medical checkup within 1 month from obtaining an RP card, you must ask for an extension at your police station. Request for extension of medical checkup must be filed the latest on the day mentioned in the paper you got from the police.

   You can simply calculate it as well (EXAMPLES): if you receive your RP card on 15.12.2017, your deadline is 14.1.2018. If you received RP card on 9.1.2018, your deadline is 8.2.2018 etc.

   Important 1: 14.1.2018 is Sunday – and the police is closed. That means that you must bring extension letter latest on Friday 12.1.2018

   Same for 8.2.2018 – it is Thursday and the police is closed. You must bring the extension letter latest on Wednesday 7.2.2018

   If you are not able to come to the police, you can also send it by registered mail by Slovak post. The date on the stamp is important.

   Important 2: if your deadline for medical checkup is e.g. 26.1.2018, you must physically bring the paper to the police. Results from the hospital takes around 3 days. If you go for checkup on 25.1.2018, you will surely miss the deadline and must pay the penalty.
