The purpose of the paper is to identify and describe the influences and impacts that the coronavirus situation and subsequent measures (lockdowns, other forms of quarantine measures, declaration of crisis situations) have affected the development of registered crime in two European countries (Czech Republic, Slovakia). The study is based on the most recent official crime statistics and other statistical outputs of the mentioned countries, as well as other open sources. It also uses some relevant secondary studies, published only recently. The mentioned issue is also related to the approach to the publication of police statistics in both countries, including its “user friendliness” with regard to the public. Based on the findings so far, an attempt will be made to estimate further expected development in the monitored area, including the changes, related to the further police work priorities.
