ZAGREB, April 10, 2020 - The e-Građani (e-Citizens) system is being used by a growing number of users due to the coronavirus epidemic and currently it has 934,762 users, with their number having increased by more than 80,000 in the period from April 1 to 8, the Public Administration Ministry said on Friday.
More than 860,000 passes have been issued via the platform's e-Propusnica (e-Pass) service, the ministry said, noting that the platform now provided 72 services.
Two new services have been developed - one that enables citizens with blocked bank accounts to access information on due payments and one enabling people living on islands to apply for island passes for persons and vehicles and access information on valid passes, travel information and submitted applications.
As for the e-Pass service, since its introduction more than 860,700 passes have been issued while more than 34,000 applications have been turned down.
Public Administration Minister Ivan Malenica said that given the experience so far, the ministry would continue to intensively digitalise the work of public administration.
The other services available on the e-Citizen platform make it possible for citizens to register the birth of a child, apply for a driver's licence and passport, access the register of births, marriages and deaths or view information on their chosen doctor, laboratory tests, therapies, etc.
Also, citizens can check their child's grades via the e-Dnevnik (e-Gradebook) service and use many other services available at https://pretinac.gov.hr/.
The ministry says that it has been in talks with the Health Ministry regarding service digitalisation and its connecting to the e-Citizen platform.
It notes that more new services will be introduced in the coming period, for example, one enabling citizens to pay for fiscal stamps online.
