PRAGUE—China’s Huawei has been excluded from a Czech tender to build a tax portal after the country’s cyber watchdog warned of possible security threats posed by the telecoms supplier, documents showed on Jan. 30.

Huawei faces international scrutiny over its ties with the Chinese regime and allegations that Beijing could use Huawei’s technology for spying, which the company denies.
