Mongolians in the Czech Republic form one of the country's smaller ethnic groups. Although the workers from Mongolia comprised 3.6% of the foreign workforce as of 2008, the group has grown over the last decade and numbered 10,236 men and women holding Mongolian nationality by June 2020.[5] By 2011 they had declined both in numbers and in relative size to other foreign populations, having been surpassed by Russians and Moldovans. However, the group began to resume its growth after 2014 once again. Currently, a large group of Mongolians reside in the town of Česká Lípa and its surrounding area.[6]
