The preparation of the inauguration was ensured by the Office of the President of the Republic headed by Vratislav Mynář, the Office of the Chamber of Deputies headed by Martin Plíšek and the team of President-elect Petr Pavel led by the future head of the Office of the President of the Republic Jana Vohralíková.
