The Guyana Government is gearing up to soon begin the nationwide distribution of the electronic identification card (e-ID card).
President Dr Irfaan Ali was the first person to be issued with his e-ID card.
“We are now moving towards the next two weeks to have all systems ready and to have a national scale implementation,” President Ali announced on Tuesday at a press conference.
He said the government will move to establish regional offices in order to accelerate the distribution of the e-ID cards.
The Government of Guyana in 2023 signed a US$35.4 million contract with German-based company, Veridos Identity Solutions for the implementation of the national electronic ID.
The e-ID card is intended to ensure holders have streamlined access to government services and healthcare services.
