What this is
The operating permit for a private hygiene or sanitation company certifies that the company complies with technical, health, and environmental standards for carrying out activities such as disinfection, pest control (insect and rodent control), or waste treatment. The permit is issued under the authority of the Ministry of Public Health, in coordination with technical departments specializing in hygiene and sanitation. The associated fees constitute a regulated non-tax revenue collected by the State. These fees cover costs related to reviewing the application dossier, verifying the adequacy of technical and human resources, inspecting premises and equipment, and issuing the permit.
