Civil Registry Office on-line

Tatarstan government is considerably expanding on-line service list for citizens. In the nearest future people will be able to pay dues and fines, receive statements from government bodies, apply for foreign or RF passport, apply for marriage registration and choose a suitable time for ceremony by infomat.

The above mentioned issues have been presented by Director of the Information Technologies Centre, Nikolay Nikiforov after meeting in RT Cabinet on issues of realization of the project “E-government”. RT PM R.N.Minnikhanov took part in the event.

Nikolay Nikiforov also reminded that the project has been commissioned in Tatarstan since 2005. The main task is to launch state service on-line. The idea is to relieve people from unnecessary visiting government bodies and long queues. People would be able either to use the service at home by internet or specialized units. According to social polls 25 % of people in the republic use internet regularly. Thus, they can cooperate with state municipal institutions on-line. Other citizens can use infomats.

Director of the Information Technologies Centre emphasized that citizens actively use the information place in governmental portal. The record number of website hosting in January 2009 was 160 000 and more than 2 mln. page views.
