The electronic ID card implementation has begun in Girne today for those who want to change or renovate their worn Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC) ID cards.<\/p>\n
Minister of the Interior and Labor Aziz Gurpinar visited the Girne district office with ministry bureaucrats, made observations and introduced the e-ID card implementation.<\/span><\/p>\n Girne District Governor Mehmet Envergil in his statement said that the service launched in Lefko\u015fa recently and started to spread to districts. E-identity is a part of the e-government project and it is a way to give more efficient, faster and healthy service to citizens.<\/span><\/p>\n Envergil stated that there is no obligation to change ID cards; however, worn ones needed to be replaced. Envergil said that there are some misunderstandings about this issue; it is not possible to catch up everyone\u2019s e-ID request, it is better to wait before switching the e-identities unless they are not worn or new.<\/span><\/p>\n Interior and Labour Minister Aziz Gurpinar noted that applications for all districts previously made from Lefko\u015fa (center) and it was causing congestion and density. G\u00fcrp\u0131nar stated that e-ID applications have started in Girne, after that it will start in Ma\u011fusa, \u0130skele and G\u00fczelyurt so the citizens can easily access to e- ID and the intensity in the center will decrease.<\/span><\/p>\n Indicating that the most important part of the e-government project is the e-ID project, G\u00fcrp\u0131nar said some individual and institutional information, such as deed, social security, bank and leasing, can be accessed easily with the activation of the other elements of the e- government project.<\/span><\/p>\n Underlining that the e-ID was highly secured, G\u00fcrp\u0131nar said it would provide great convenience to both citizens and state.<\/span><\/p>\n The citizens can receive the e-ID cards after making application to Girne District Governor by presenting necessary documents and deposit within 2-3 workdays. A short message (SMS) will be sent to the citizen\u2019s mobile phone when the e-ID card is ready. In case of emergency, the e-ID card can be delivered on the same day or one day after, from the headquarters in Lefko\u015fa.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The electronic ID card implementation has begun in Girne today for those who want to change [\u2026]<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-138843","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-headlines"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pio.mfa.gov.ct.tr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/138843","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/pio.mfa.gov.ct.tr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/pio.mfa.gov.ct.tr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pio.mfa.gov.ct.tr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pio.mfa.gov.ct.tr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=138843"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/pio.mfa.gov.ct.tr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/138843\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pio.mfa.gov.ct.tr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=138843"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pio.mfa.gov.ct.tr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=138843"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pio.mfa.gov.ct.tr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=138843"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
