In Norway there is a lead climbing certification. You attend and pass a weekend course including a final test, then you get a card.
In order to be allowed to belay/lead climb in a gym you have to present this card.
You can bring friends and let them top rope without the card, at least in some gyms, but the belayer needs to have the card. I think you can also climb on autobelay without the card.
