Start-up procedures are those required to start a business, including the interactions needed to obtain the necessary permits and licences and to complete all inscriptions, verifications, and notifications to start operations.
Data are for businesses with specific characteristics of ownership, size, and type of production.
There are some interesting comparisons between the developed countries (such as the 15 procedures necessary to start up a business in Greece, compared to only two in Australia), but also between the developing economies (14 procedures in China, compared to only 5 in Romania).
