Since there's rarely public data point or statistics about how long CoE takes to issue, I'm here to offer my own contribution.
I was applying for CoE on engineering visa. My agent submitted the application on November 7, and I got it on 19. So in total 12 days, or 7 working days. The visa is granted for 5 years.
I never imagined it to be so efficient! On the other hand, it took 3 months for Czech government to issue my Blue Card… But please know that this is just one single case. For those applying or waiting, I hope it at least gives you hope or confidence!
Right now I'm still finishing my remaining time in my currently company. Anyway, see you guys in Tokyo in January!
Edit: Both my own CoE and my wife's dependent CoE were issued together!
