The Ministry for Investments, Industry and Information Technology together with the Ministry for Justice and Home Affairs and the Ministry for Gozo has extended the e-ID registration service to Gozitans. An e-ID registration is free of charge and is now also open in the premises of the Passport Office in St. Francis Square, Victoria.
Applicants for an e-ID should visit the e-ID Office in person and are required to take with them their ID Card.
Several e-Government services are available through the mygov.mt portal and more are to be added as the Government completes its project of placing all Public Services online by 2010.
The portal provides security to make sure that users accessing e-Government services may only do so if they have first securely signed-in and thus show that they are who they claim to be. This is done through an electronic key called the e-ID which may then be used in connection with the e-Government portal mygov.mt. The e-ID consists of an e-ID Number and a password. This may then be upgraded by the user to also include a Digital Certificate which may be used to sign in as well as to sign electronic documents such as private agreements.
The registration for an e-ID requires that the user visits in person, only once, a Registration Office where an application is made and his or her identity is verified. Then, a username and password is sent to the person by email and a PIN activation code (similar to the one used for using a bank’s ATM) is sent by normal mail.
The new Gozo office is open during the following hours:
Monday to Friday :- 7.45 a.m. to 11.30 p.m and
1.30 p.m to 4.00 p.m (the office is only open in afternoons between 1st September and 15th June)
Saturday :- 7.30 a.m. to 11 a.m.
