Minister of Communications and IT Ali Abbasov said that the portal will operate with â€œone windowâ€ principle.

To him, approximate list of the services to be rendered via the portal has been prepared and submitted to the Cabinet of Ministers and passed the ratification during the first stage: â€˜Our main goal â€“ to render e-services to the population after the launch of e-portal and conclude their demand for services during work period. Knowing of peopleâ€™s wished and offers are necessary for us in order to maintain activity of the portal at a satisfactory levelâ€™.

Abbasov noted that Azerbaijani citizens will be able to use different e-services of state bodies.

Note that, 16 central executive bodies, including the Interior Ministry, Taxes Ministry and etc. joined the portal until April, 2012. Consequently, about 60 e-services were integrated into the portal. In the second half of 2013, nearly 300 e-services are considered to launch in Azerbaijan.

In order to use the portal, people must have e-signature card. The cost of the â€œe-signatureâ€ card for individuals is AZN 20-30, for civil servants â€“ AZN 135, for commercial entities â€“ AZN 168. Application of e-signature will allow full use of e-services in the country and eliminate bureaucratic obstacles.
