Summary/Abstract: The aim of this paper is to compare the statutory conditions for the reporting of accounting information pursuant to Czech legislation and the international financial reporting standards (IFRS/IAS). The paper is divided into three parts. The first part deals with the comparison of basic preconditions for submission, compilation and publishing of financial statements pursuant to the principles of Czech legislation and the international financial reporting standards (IFRS/IAS). It is followed by a comparative analysis aimed at the statement of financial position. Finally the last part compares the requirements imposed on the contents and scope of the appendices to the financial statements. At the end of this paper the most significant differences of financial reporting according to Czech legislation and IFRS/ IAS are presented. The aim of this paper is not to research and quantify impacts of different reporting of individual accounting items.
