The Integrated Regional Operational Programme (IROP) is one of the operational programmes through which funds provided by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) are distributed in the Czech Republic. Operational programmes are implemented in six-year intervals; the current programming period covers the years 2021–2027, with projects eligible for completion until 2029.

IROP is managed by the Ministry of Regional Development, namely by the Managing Authority of IROP. This authority issues calls for project proposals, sets the submission conditions, grants funding decisions, and disburses funds.

The Centre for Regional Development of the Czech Republic (the Centre) is responsible for project evaluation and selection for approval. Its regional offices, located in each regional capital, provide consultations on project proposals and oversee the implementation and reporting of supported projects.
