What this is

The letter of agreement in principle is the essential first legal step in the authorization process. It confirms that the Ministry for the Promotion of Women and the Family endorses the merits of a proposed project to open a day nursery or drop-in childcare center. This letter from the Ministry (MINPROFF) gives the green light to proceed with major investments, fit out the premises, and prepare for the actual opening. A fee is charged to cover the administrative, technical, and character assessment of the project prior to the start of operations. The agreement in principle does not replace the final operating license, which requires a separate payment at a later stage.

At the counter

What readers say they paid

The law sets a fee. At the counter it is not always the one you pay. Here is what readers report, counted and summarised.

Nobody has reported an amount for this procedure yet.

If you have done it, say what you paid. We publish the figures together, never your account on its own.

Report what I paid

No name, no number, no link. We refuse those.

We publish how many reports there are, the range and the median. Never your report on its own, never an official's name, never a named office.
