What this is
Anyone wishing to work in the advertising sector must first obtain an advertising license issued by the Ministry of Communication (MINCOM). This license is valid for one year and is renewable. Applicants (consulting agencies, advertising sales houses) must submit a file including a stamped application, the company's articles of incorporation, and proof of registration with the Trade Register. A complete list of licensed advertising agencies is available on the Ministry of Communication's website.
