Abu Dhabi: The Abu Dhabi government yesterday unveiled a massive e-government project unmatched elsewhere in the Middle East and Mena region.
The move follows the successful implementation of Dubai's e-government project and is in line with a federal e-government project that will complete the circle.
The new portal is the fruit of more than a year of intensive efforts and it will provide citizens, residents, visitors and businesses with a single point of access to all services and information provided online by the government.
The website provides a single point of access to more than 500 government services, of which more than 300 are already available as complete online services.
They include personal documents such as IDs, passports and visas, healthcare, land and homes as well as a dedicated portal for business where any investor can find all the necessary information he requires including business support, international trade, rules and regulations, and business start-up.
"One of the things the business portal provides is a step-by-step guide to establishing a business in Abu Dhabi, where investors will find detailed information, concerned authorities and forms.
"There is even a map to show the location of any government entity involved and its branches along with all the relevant details.
"There is no need for consultation. Doing business can never be easier," said Rashed Lahaj Al Mansouri, chairman of the Abu Dhabi Systems and Information Committee which launched the project
