Azerbaijan applies primary version of e-government portal

The Azerbaijani Communications and IT Ministry has launched the primary version of its e-government portal, Communications and IT Minister Ali Abbasov told media today.

He said that at present, the list of electronic services has been prepared and approved by the Cabinet of Ministers.

"We are ready to render about 60 e-services to the population at this portal," he said. "A certain part is delivered via "single window" principle. Besides rendering electronic services to the population, our main goal is to create conditions for citizens to submit their
proposals, the requirements for electronic services. This will allow creating new services to meet the needs of the population."

The "Electronic government" portal will be a key tool supporting the work with citizens and enterprises of public and private sectors.

While creating "Electronic government", X-Road principle was used. It is designed to combine the existing information bases and systems of state institutions, created on different platforms.

Launching the portal will reduce the number of documents requested from the citizens because different bodies will interact with each other electronically.
