 “The Government of the Republic of Serbia is making great efforts in the field of digitization, in particular, the reform of public administration. The goal is for Serbia to get a better, more transparent and efficient public administration, and the means for achieving this is modern and accessible to all.

One of the first moves of the Government in this field is the establishment of the Office for IT and eGovernment, as a government service in the field of information technology and electronic administration, which responds directly to the RS government and has the power to implement serious projects that are interlinked by various state institutions,” Jovanović pointed out.

The modern electronic administration is crucial for faster and more efficient work of public administration. It reduces costs, increases the transparency of the work of the state and reduces the possibility of corruption, and makes it easier for citizens and businesses to deal with the state.
