HA NOI (Biz hub) — The Ministry of Finance (MoF) launched its electronic portal's new interface in a ceremony on November 26 in Ha Noi.
The ministry's new e-portal can be found at http://mof.gov.vn.
The e-portal of the Viet Nam State Treasury under the MoF was also launched during the ceremony, and can be found at http://vst.mof.gov.vn.
Speaking at the event, Deputy Minister of Finance Vu Thi Mai said the MoF's e-portal was upgraded based on modern technology.
Mai said the e-portal's new interface, which had a simple but attractive and user-friendly design, would improve the ministry's online public services and contribute significantly to the reform of administrative procedures.
Mai added that this move was considered an effort of the finance sector towards the development of e-government in Viet Nam.
The MoF's new e-portal includes two specialised pages, which are the Finance News Page providing important news and events of the financial sector and the Administrative Procedures and Public Services Page providing all the information about user guidelines, direct links to access online public services and status of online transactions.
Mai said the State Treasury's e-portal was officially launched to provide online public services level 3, in which the public service allows applicants to fill in and submit the forms online.
It is a significant milestone in the agency's effort to connect with people and businesses and enhance administrative reforms, Mai said.
There are currently 57 administrative procedures that can be conducted online.
In the near future, the website will attempt to revamp the administrative procedures in order to provide 100 per cent of the procedures online.
In particular, this new e-portal will provide specific information about the Minister of Finance in each term of office while posting outstanding performances of the incumbent minister. — VNS
