DIČ (Daňové identifikační číslo, Czech VAT number).

The number is an 8, 9 or 10 digit code that includes a check digit and is used to uniquely identify taxpayers for VAT (DPH in Czech). The number can refer to legal entities (8 digit numbers), individuals with a RČ (the 9 or 10 digit Czech birth number) or individuals without a RČ (9 digit numbers that begin with a 6).
