Reviews of our Clients

Obtaining a veterinary practice license is the final and most anticipated stage prior to the long-awaited opening of a veterinary clinic, outpatient facility, or care station. It often feels as though the hardest steps are already behind: premises have been selected, renovations completed, expensive equipment purchased, and a team of specialists stands ready for their first patients.

However, an official decision from the State Service of Ukraine for Food Safety and Consumer Protection refusing to issue a license can instantly freeze a business launch for weeks, if not months.

For many entrepreneurs, a refusal comes as a complete surprise. In practice, the vast majority of errors are routine, resulting from oversight or a misinterpretation of licensing terms caused by a lack of experience in dealing with regulatory requirements.
