New identity cards will be available for Greek citizens by the end of 2021.
Digital Governance Minister Kyriakos Pierrakakis said the tender for the new cards will be launched on Friday or Monday, adding that the “operation of the state’s single digital portal for citizens will start in the first half of 2020.”
The single digital portal will be based on the design of the corresponding UK government portal which allows citizens access via Taxis or bank passwords.
Hellenic Federation of Enterprises (SEV) executive vice-chairman Konstantinos Bitsios said that the new technologies create opportunities for those who dare but also impasses for those that will not follow.
He said that SEV’s proposal for the digital transition is based on programmes in other countries.
