Ministry of Home Affairs - Central Committee for the Registration and Supervision of Organisations (MM-MHA)
Description
The MHA assigns a registration number to each NGO - this number is time limited, for example 4 years, after which the registration is reviewed.
There is no URL for the Ministry, nor is there a publicly available database of NGO information.
This list is also considered the modern equivalent for societies and associations previously registered under earlier legislation, including the Association Registration Law 2014 and the colonial-era Societies Registration Act (under which some organisations may hold certificates predating Myanmar's independence in 1948).
Where an organisation's registration predates the current system, the registration year should be included as part of the identifier to ensure uniqueness (e.g. MM-MHA-0004-1951), following the same convention used for other lists where numbering may reset across years.
How to use
The code for this list is MM-MHA.
When you have located the organization you wish to identify in this list, you should either:
Enter it in an identifier database field prefixed with MM-MHA.
MM-MHA-[ IDENTIFIER ]
Alternatively, use it within a two-part identifier, with MM-MHA as the 'scheme', and the identifier you have located as the 'identifier' field.
