Across the capital, there are 496 permitted outdoor signs and advertising structures, as well as 250 installed without permits.
According to the Governor’s Office of the Capital City of Ulaanbaatar, the forced removal of advertising structures and billboards that fail to meet standards will begin next month. These include installations that are visually unappealing, compromise public safety, obstruct sightlines, block surveillance cameras, or are illegally placed in prohibited locations without authorization.
The city has also set the following requirements for outdoor signs and advertising structures:
Modern technological solutions must be used, with regular maintenance ensured to keep structures in proper condition.
Designs must align with the unified visual appearance of city streets and buildings.
Signs must not compromise the safety, structural integrity, or aesthetics of buildings.
Signage must be written in Mongolian; if English is used, it must appear below or after the Mongolian text and be no more than half its size.
A uniform design and size must be maintained for signs placed within the same space.
Logos of trademark-protected products must not be altered.
The total size of signage must not exceed 20 percent of the building facade.
Signs must have external or internal lighting, and integrated information boards displaying details of all institutions must be installed.
