Abstract: The study examines Czech and German listed companies' compliance with selected international financial reporting standards (IFRS) mandatory disclosure requirements. The aim of this paper is to analyse and compare the level of annual report disclosure quality for companies in the Czech Republic and Germany. The proxies for measuring compliance with IFRS mandatory disclosure requirements quantify the range of disclosure of information in the financial statements using the disclosure index. It was proved that the disclosure index of the Czech companies is lower than the German ones. Findings could be useful to potential investors, management and other users of corporate disclosures.
