What this is

Authorization from the Ministry for the Promotion of Women and the Family to open and operate a crèche and/or drop-in daycare center allows a promoter to legally care for young children within an early childhood facility. A crèche provides regular, daily care, whereas a drop-in daycare center offers temporary, occasional care. This operating authorization guarantees that the facility meets all safety, hygiene, and supervision standards required for the children's well-being. Once obtained, a copy of the authorization order must be displayed at the facility's premises.

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.
