Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani approved on Thursday the launch of electronic signatures for state institutions, the private sector, and citizens.
The Prime Minister's media office said in a statement that "al-Sudani and Iraqi Minister of Communications Hiyam al-Yasiri conducted the first two official electronic signatures."
Al-Sudani emphasized that "this measure represents an important step in implementing one of the government's most important commitments included in its program for digital transformation, automation, and simplification of procedures. This has a significant impact on service delivery to citizens, reducing administrative and financial corruption, and the red tape that accompanies paper transactions."
Goodbye to paper transactions... Iraq enters the era of electronic signatures.
