Electronic communication with the public authorities

Nowadays, communication with the public authorities takes part in dealing with different life situations. It can be handled in person at the office, or by using the electronic submission of public authorities. Of course, the electronic form of communication has its advantages. Not only saving the time, but most of the administrative fees are half of the cost while electronic filing. In addition, you can make electronic submissions from anywhere and without the time limit, with an eID card, a card reader, a computer with internet access and the relevant software.

Life Situations at Slovensko.sk

The purpose of the slovensko.sk portal is to ensure simple and uniform access to information and electronic submission of the public authorities. A bookmark called “Life Events” is therefore available on the website slovensko.sk, where you can find practical information about the selected life situation (events). It is situated in the upper right corner, on the home page of the portal (Figure 2).
