If upon completing some form of education, your education center issues you a document that you've completed your education based on an exam you've passed, successfully completed credentials, or a test, then obtaining an education license is a must.

Obtaining this type of license is required to open certain types of education institutions. For instance, a driving school, a general education school, a college, and a higher education institution all require a license to conduct their operations. A license will also be necessary for the proper functioning of children’s foreign language, speed reading, robot technology, and other types of courses.

Since 2013, not only have non-commercial organizations (NCOs) been able to conduct education activities but so have commercial organizations in the form of an LLC or JSC, even as sole proprietors!

The licensing process is labor-intensive, in part due to the need to obtain a conclusion from the Sanitary and Epidemiological Service (SES). Scrupulously approaching the choice of the facility you will operate in is of the utmost importance, and this is about more than just its appearance and location. Many landlords are discovered to have document issues, which further along the line will serve as the sole reason why a tenant will end up unable to obtain an education license. Other necessary items include: preparation of an education plan and a description of the physical facilities.

If the legal entity is just being created, special attention must be paid to the contents of the articles of association: it must reflect your education operations.

After the organization is created, an SES conclusion has been obtained, and the education plan and other documents concurrent with the educational operations have been written up, the documents package is submitted to the licensing authority. Within five days, a decision is issued declaring that the documents have been accepted, rejected, or that corrections are required.

Licenses are issued for an indefinite period of time; however, they must be processed anew in certain cases if the legal entity has been reorganized or there has been a change to the title, address, or the location where the educational activity is being conducted. In the case of sole proprietors, the license is processed anew if there is a change to their first, middle, or last name or passport information.
