Case: Obtaining a veterinary practice license for a clinic in Kyiv after the cancellation of declarations
The owner of an operating veterinary clinic in the city of Kyiv approached the Prikhodko & Partners law company. For a long time, the business had been functioning on the basis of a veterinary declaration (under the preferential terms of martial law). However, after the legislative cancellation of the simplified system, an urgent need arose to switch to a full-fledged license.
The client attempted to go through the procedure independently but quickly realized the risks and contacted our specialized medical and veterinary practice lawyers in time. During an expert audit of the documents, the lawyers of Prikhodko & Partners discovered a serious obstacle: the date of issuance of the diploma exceeded 5 years, which consequently required mandatory professional development courses. Submitting the documents in their original form would have guaranteed an official refusal from the State Service of Ukraine on Food Safety and Consumer Protection.
What was done by the lawyers of “Prikhodko & Partners”
- Conducted a comprehensive analysis of the client’s personnel and material-technical documents.
- Identified the discrepancy in the qualification level in time and provided a clear action algorithm for quickly passing professional development courses.
- Compiled a package of documents (application, information on MTB and personnel) after updating the educational certificates.
- Ensured full support during the review of the case by the licensing authority.
Result
Risk of refusal prevented: thanks to the vigilance of the lawyers, the client did not waste time on knowingly unsuccessful submissions.
Business protected from shutdown: the veterinary clinic continued its operations without any pauses or penalties for operating without permit documents.
License obtained: the client now holds an official and perpetual license for veterinary practice in Kyiv.
Timely consultation with professionals is not just a piece of paper; it represents the financial security of the business and protection against forced downtime.
