I had hoped when I received my last ID card that it would be a very long time before I had to go back to the Interior Ministry. That hope was short lived. I actually needed to make two visits but I just combined them and did everything at once.
1. Since I have a new passport I needed to give the information to the authorities.
2. Since I'm moving I need to update my ID card. I needed to show a copy of my new lease, provide biometric data and buy a 1000 Kč (~$39) stamp.
I'm not 100% on the law but I believe that you need to report a new address within 30 days of moving.
Oh a joyful day of bureaucracy but, all and all, it was't actually too bad. I did manage to do everything in Czech. It should take about two weeks before my new ID card is ready. What's nice is that I got to keep my current card while my new one is in the works.
