  • Why get it?

    To open a new management company, you need to obtain a license to manage apartment buildings. To obtain such a license, an official of the licensee, an official of the license applicant must pass a qualification exam and receive a qualification certificate (Clause 2, Part 1, Article 193 of the RF Housing Code).

    You can operate an apartment building not only in the region where you passed the exam and received a qualification certificate, but also in any other region. A qualification certificate is issued to an individual without reference to a company or region.

    But a license to manage an apartment building already obliges the licensee (organization or individual entrepreneur) to carry out its activities only where the license was issued. The exam and certification take place in the same region.

  • Changes in the certificate

    If you have changed your full name, this must be reflected in the qualification certificate. The qualification certificate is reissued on a new form based on a written application.

  • Can a qualification certificate be cancelled?

    Yes, GZHI can do this.

  • Why can a certificate be revoked?

    The certificate can be canceled by decision of the State Housing Authority before the expiration of its five-year validity period if it is discovered that the certificate was obtained using forged documents or information about the certificate holder was included in the register of disqualified persons.

    The reason for the cancellation of a qualification certificate may be the entry into force of a court decision against the owner of the certificate, if it provides for punishment for crimes in the economic sphere, serious and especially serious crimes.

  • How is the cancellation of a certificate processed?

    The decision to cancel the certificate is recorded in writing, supported by the basis for this action and signed by the head of the Civil Housing Inspectorate. The State Housing Registration Authority shall notify the owner of the certificate about the cancellation of the document within 5 working days.

    Corresponding adjustments are made to the register of qualification certificates. Information about this is stored for 3 years. During this period, you cannot retake the qualifying exam. The disqualification order can be challenged in court.

  • Until May 1, 2015, mandatory licensing of management organizations was carried out. According to the new standards, the management authority cannot operate apartment buildings without a license.

    In other words, the licensing law provides for the mandatory receipt of a qualification certificate by the head of an educational institution. This is strictly stipulated in clause 6 of the “Regulations on licensing business activities for the management of apartment buildings” and is one of the licensing requirements.

    Briefly about the main thing

    Let's look at what the qualifying exam itself is. It takes place in your region and is accepted by the regional licensing commission.

    To pass the exam, the manager and/or representative must submit an application (you will find a sample application on the website of your State Housing Institution), the approval of which takes up to 15 working days. Testing is carried out on a computer. In 2 hours you need to correctly answer at least 86 questions out of 100, but no less.

    Otherwise, the exam will not count and you will have to retake it again. After 5 days, the results are announced and the lucky winners are awarded a qualification certificate valid for 5 years. Management organizations in the housing and communal services sector that pass the exam can apply for a license.

    The good news is that the exam is free and you can retake it an unlimited number of times. Also, a qualification certificate can be obtained by one of your employees who helps conduct business in your absence.

    What is this for? If gross violations are discovered during the exam, the certificate may be canceled and the manager may be disqualified.

    In this case, so that the management company is not left without a leader, it is advisable to play it safe and have a person with the same certificate on staff. If something happens, it will be possible to transfer the reins of power into his hands. Some companies in the housing and communal services sector have already taken advantage of this advice and sent their employees to receive certificates.

    You can carry out your activities to manage apartment buildings not only in the region where you took the exam and received a qualification certificate, but also in any other, since the certificate is issued to an individual without reference to a company or region. But a license to manage an apartment building already obliges the licensee to carry out its activities only where it was issued.

    The exam and certification take place in the same region. That is, you cannot take the exam in one region and get it in another. This can be seen in the order of the Ministry of Construction of the Russian Federation dated December 5, 2015 No. 789/pro on conducting a qualification exam, as well as on the issuance and cancellation of certificates.

    If for some reason you have changed your full name, this must be reflected in the qualification certificate. That is, it needs to be reissued on a new form based on a written application.

    We are often asked the question whether it is necessary to retake the qualifying exam if the certificate has been lost. The answer is no. Based on a written statement of loss, a duplicate is issued.

    Professionally qualified

    Not everyone was able to pass the exam and then undergo licensing of management organizations in the housing and communal services sector. As disappointing statistics show, 3 thousand out of 14,000 management companies throughout the country were unable to cope with this task.

    This is quite a lot, considering what was available online. That is, you could test yourself before the real exam, see what questions you might get and how to answer them.

    Some services on the Internet allow you to independently evaluate yourself for professional suitability. Take, for example, our RosKvartal platform, which allows you to pass it in two modes: training and exam.

    Thus, in the “learning mode” you are given the opportunity to answer all 200 exam questions sequentially or in a random order. For example, you can go through all the questions and see the correct answers with explanations and references to legislation.

    Or you can select from the list only those exam questions in which you feel unsure. As for the “exam mode,” conditions have been created for you that are as close as possible to exam conditions.

    That is, during the time allotted for testing, you must correctly answer the maximum number of questions in the housing and communal services exam. In any case, this is a useful experiment.

    Those who tried our free simulator felt confident before the licensing commission, since they already had an idea of ​​​​the essence of the issues. Our service also allows you to take the test to pass the qualifying exam an unlimited number of times.

    Thus, already from the second or third time you can remember many answers to questions. To make it easier, you can even break down the questions, for example, 50 in each part. And gradually master them.

    The training mode also allows you to speed up the testing process itself, as speed and reaction are honed. Try ours too. Good luck in passing the test!

    Those who have successfully passed the test and received a license to manage apartment buildings will need an electronic digital signature key to register in the GIS Housing and Communal Services. For example, we received our KETsP from the Kontur company.

    You can look at the prices for their services and select a basic qualified electronic signature certificate Classic, which will cost much less. In any case, after submitting your application, the company manager will contact you and explain which EDS key is suitable for registration in the GIS Housing and Communal Services.

    The housing and communal services qualification exam is a procedure that raises many questions among applicants for a license. We invite you to read the answers to some of them.
