|process_step_description=The decision to grant approval for the operation of professional training schools/centres to issue certificates of professional competence (CPC) to drivers of vehicles for the carriage of goods or passengers is signed by the licensing authority.
|process_step_note=Approval of operation is valid for an indefinite period.
Within sixty (60) days from the proper submission of the application and the supporting documents, the licensing authority will conduct an onsite inspection to verify that legal operating conditions are fulfilled, and will issue approval in accordance with the Sample Form of Annex II pursuant Article 14 of Joint Ministerial Decision Δ30/Α3/314952/2021 (Government Gazette Series II No 5275), or shall reject the application with due justification. If there is no communication within the deadline for approval, by way of derogation from Article 8 of Law 4442/2016, this cannot be presumed to mean that operating approval has been granted.
After the operation has been approved, the operator of the CPC professional training school/centre can begin its business activities.
