The procedure for obtaining a unique identifier
The procedure for obtaining a unique identifier is determined by the Regulations “On the procedure for obtaining a unique identifier”, approved by Resolution of the Council of Ministers of the Republic of Belarus dated August 22, 2017 No. 637.
A unique identifier is a means of identifying a citizen when carrying out administrative procedures in electronic form through a personal electronic account, in respect of which the legislation on administrative procedures establishes such a form of their implementation.
A unique identifier allows you to log into your personal electronic account on a single portal of electronic services and carry out:
submission (revocation) of applications for the implementation of administrative procedures;
receiving administrative decisions (notifications of administrative decisions taken);
submission (revocation) of administrative complaints in electronic form.
To obtain a unique identifier, you must contact the “one window” service of the local executive and administrative body at your place of residence, the National Center for Electronic Services or other government organizations authorized by the Council of Ministers to issue a unique identifier with an identity document.
The unique identifier includes a login (the name of the citizen’s account in the OAIS) and a password.
The use of a unique identifier allows a citizen to gain access to a personal electronic account.
A personal electronic account is formed automatically simultaneously with the citizen receiving a unique identifier
A citizen has the right to independently change the primary password, as well as subsequently generate a new password an unlimited number of times.
Changing the primary password and generating a new one is carried out during authorization in your personal electronic account.
The note of receipt of the notice is certified by the signature of the citizen.
The issuance of a unique identifier to a citizen is refused in the following cases:
failure to provide an identification document and (or) refusal to agree to reconcile the information specified by the citizen when submitting an application for the issuance of a unique identifier, in the manner prescribed by these Regulations;
providing an invalid identification document;
presence of a unique identifier;
identifying the fact of discrepancy between information about a citizen and an identity document when conducting a reconciliation in accordance with paragraph 7 of these Regulations.
A citizen has the right to refuse to use a unique identifier by submitting an appropriate written application to the issuing service and presenting an identification document.
A citizen’s refusal to use a unique identifier entails the termination of the possibility of carrying out administrative procedures in electronic form through a personal electronic account using a unique identifier as a way to access a single portal. In this case, the issuing service employee initiates blocking access to the personal electronic account using a unique identifier.
