Social tickets for kindergarten are granted within a national interest program that aims to increase access to education by encouraging preschool attendance among children from disadvantaged families, the method of identifying beneficiaries being established by decision of the Local Council.
The beneficiary of the incentive is the child, and the holder of the social ticket for kindergarten is the family representative, namely the child's legal representative.
The right to the incentive is granted starting from the month in which the beneficiary meets the eligibility criteria and is granted monthly during the child's participation in activities organized within preschool education units, from September to June.
The funding for the granting of social tickets is provided from the state budget through amounts broken down from value-added tax, allocated to local budgets for this specific purpose.
Social tickets are issued only by units authorized by the Ministry of Public Finance. The operating license is granted according to the criteria established by the Ministry of Public Finance, through ministerial order.
The holder can use the social ticket for kindergarten within its validity period, only for purchasing food products, hygiene products, clothing and/or school supplies, exclusively from operators that sell the products provided by law and with whom the issuing unit has signed specific social ticket service contracts.
The holder is prohibited from:
a) requesting and/or receiving change for the social ticket for kindergarten, if the amount corresponding to the requested products is less than the nominal value of the ticket;
b) selling social tickets for kindergarten in exchange for money and/or other goods and/or services;
c) using social tickets for kindergarten in stores, locations, units, markets of any kind that do not sell food, hygiene products, clothing and/or school supplies and do not display at the entrance the special stickers of the issuing unit;
