The cost of the license until 1.12.2015 is 1218 UAH. Validity period – unlimited.

License to manufacture pesticides

Pesticides (excluding copper sulfate, sulfur and colloidal sulfur) are included by legislation in the list of particularly hazardous chemical substances, therefore their manufacture requires a pesticide manufacturing license issued by the Ministry of Ecology and Natural Resources of Ukraine.

For a positive decision on the issuance of this permit, the business entity must have:

• appropriate regulatory and material-technical base;
• conclusions from supervisory authorities (in the fields of labor protection, fire safety and sanitary-epidemiological safety);
• certificate (attestation) of state registration of a hazardous chemical factor.

The license is granted for a term of 5 years. The cost of the license is set at the level of one minimum wage and for 2014 amounts to 1218 UAH.
