#Breaking: #Romania. A new step to expand the project of digitization of civil status documents

Starting today, May 8, 2024, citizens from the municipalities of Cluj-Napoca, Constanta, Slobozia, Iasi, Deva, Sibiu, Timișoara and Ilfov County will be able to obtain in digital format, but also physically, upon request, birth and death certificates.

Thus, the activity of recording life, birth and death events, carried out by the civil status officer, will be done in digital format.

In April, the commissioning of the “Integrated Information System for the Issuance of Civil Status Documents – SIIEASC” was initiated at the level of all administrative-territorial units of Ilfov County, by registering deaths and births in digital format and, taking into account the results obtained, today, May 8, 2024, the General Directorate for Persons Records, with the support of the County Directorates for Persons Registration in Cluj counties, Constanta, Hunedoara, Ialomita, Iasi, Sibiu and Timis, as well as of the local directorates for the registration of the persons involved, made S.I.I.E.A.S.C. operationalized at the level of the 7 county residence municipalities.

A new stage regarding the extension of S.I.I.E.A.S.C. is expected to be achieved on May 10, 2024, by including certain administrative-territorial units in Cluj, Constanta, Hunedoara, Ialomița, Iasi, Sibiu and Timiș counties.

The commissioning, at national level, of the Information System will be carried out in stages, to be completed on September 24, 2024.
