BAKU, Azerbaijan, September 17. A total of 15 percent of services physically provided to citizens in Azerbaijan is planned to be digitalized by the end of this year, Deputy Minister of Digital Development and Transport of Azerbaijan Samir Mammadov said during the presentation of the updated "mygov" e-government platform, Trend reports.
"Through the "mygov" platform, citizens can access their data, update it, keep track of important notifications, and automate processes related to life events in just a few clicks. This promotes a more transparent and convenient digital ecosystem, eliminating the need for office visits and complex paperwork. In line with our goals, we plan to convert 15 percent of services provided to citizens in physical format to digital by the end of the year,” he said.
He mentioned that Azerbaijan relies on three key areas in digital development - digital government, digital society, and digital business.
“The main goal is to expand the scope of digitalization to ensure more efficient functioning of all spheres of life. The creation of digital government is aimed at full digitalization of public services and internal processes,” he added.
To note, the information and communication enterprises provided services worth 2.2 billion manat ($1.2 billion) in Azerbaijan from January through August 2024.
