Following the 2009 Parliamentary Elections, one of the main objectives of the government program for 2009-2013 was "Albania in the Digital Age". The Minister for Innovation, Information Technology and Communication at the time was tasked with running the process of digitalization. New legislation was adopted in line with EU standards which made possible the creation of a digitalized National Civil Registry, an Electronic Procurement System, the Tax Service had been provided electronically since 2008 and Customs Declarations also started being conducted electronically.
AKSHI developed and still administers the e-Albania portal which serves as a gateway through which any interested citizen can access via electronic means services provided by public institutions in Albania.[2]
