In September 2020, Filip received his first call-up to the Czech Republic national team for their UEFA Nations League match against Scotland on 7 September.[14] Due to positive SARS-CoV-2 tests in the previous Czech squad, all players and the coaching staff which faced Slovakia on 4 September had to be replaced.[15][16][17]
