  • Non-compliance of the premises with the requirements of sanitary norms and rules;

  • Negative conclusion on the results of examinations and inspections.

What do you need to know about the SES Certificate for the premises (Ukraine)?

Obtaining the Sanitary and Epidemiological Certificate (formerly known as an SES permit) is a necessary step that many entrepreneurs need to take to perform a certain type of activity within the law.

The process of obtaining the Certificate is troublesome and time-consuming: you will have to collect a considerable number of documents from various authorities, draw up some of them yourself, then submit them to the State Service of Ukraine on Food Safety and Consumer Protection or an expert institution. There are situations where you will have to stand in line and talk to principled officials.

Passing all these steps does not guarantee that you will reach the goal - the issuance of a positive Certificate by the State Service of Ukraine on Food Safety and Consumer Protection. But if your interests in this process are represented by trained professionals, the SES Certificate will be obtained in the shortest possible time with minimal effort on your part.

Answers to frequently asked questions

Is it always necessary to get an examination certificate for medical practice?

No, it is not. If your office or medical institution specializes exclusively in primary health care (the practice of family doctors), then in this case, an examination certificate is not necessary.
