Why hosting in Prague looks the way it does

This facility sits on the NIX.CZ internet exchange, with a 40 Gbit/s uplink and estimated round-trip times of 8 ms to Frankfurt and 95 ms to Ashburn. Low power costs and a historically permissive hosting regime make it economically and legally attractive. OnionVPS has run this region since 2021, offering DDoS scrubbing, native IPv6, and NVMe storage on site.

People deploy public-facing web services, game servers, and exit nodes for privacy tools. The combination of Czechia's non-Eyes status and fast regional latency makes it a reliable location for latency-sensitive apps serving Central Europe, or for workloads where legal distance from US and allied jurisdiction is a feature.

Frequently asked questions

Is Czechia a good place to host a server?

NIX.CZ peering, low power costs, and a historically permissive hosting regime.

Is Czechia in the Five, Nine or Fourteen Eyes?

No. Czechia is not a member of the Five, Nine or Fourteen Eyes intelligence-sharing alliances, which is one reason it appears in our core tier.

Does the DMCA apply to a server in Czechia?

No. The DMCA is United States copyright statute and binds service providers situated in the US. A server in Czechia is governed by Czechia copyright law, which generally requires a court order rather than a private notice. Copyright still applies; only the enforcement mechanism differs.

How fast is Prague from Europe and North America?

Estimated round trips are approximately 8 ms to Frankfurt and 95 ms to Ashburn. These are computed from great-circle distance rather than measured, so treat them as a floor.

Do I need to identify myself to order in Prague?

No. Every OnionVPS location has the same signup: an email address you control and a cryptocurrency payment. No name, no address, no document, no card.

Is GDPR compliance required for personal data in Prague?

Yes, GDPR applies to personal data processed here, as Czechia is an EU member state. You must have a lawful basis for processing EU personal data. But OnionVPS does not collect your identity, so you manage your own compliance.

Can I get a dedicated IPv4 without extra paperwork?

Yes, you can add an IPv4 address for $3 per month, routed to your instance, with no justification form. The signup process requires only an email address—no name, address, or card. Each instance also gets a routed IPv6 /64 at no cost.
