The Constitution of Mongolia guarantees freedom of religion but also stipulates the separation of religion and state. [1] Under the Law on Relations between the State and Religious Organizations (1993), all places of worship and religious groups are required to obtain a license from local authorities. Registration must be periodically renewed, and without it, organizations cannot legally operate or own land for religious purposes. [2]
The government states that licensing is necessary to ensure transparency, monitor foreign-funded activities, and maintain social harmony. However, human rights groups and minority religious communities have criticized the process as overly bureaucratic and sometimes discriminatory.
According to USCIRF 2012 Mongolia have 40 mosques in Mongolia. [3] On government records only 27 mosques are in the country. [4]
