The procedure of online application for electronic signature certificate has been simplified
Following appeals from various regions of Azerbaijan, the National Certification Services Center has simplified the procedure of online application for an electronic signature certificate.
Thus, from now on, citizens, physical persons and legal entities will be able to order an electronic signature certificate on the E-government portal or on the website www.e-imza.az without having to visit the Registration Centre.
To do this, the user must, in the first place, access the E-government portal (www.e-gov.az) and select the "All services" section in the "E-services" menu.
Then, he must select the electronic service "Ordering electronic signature certificates for citizens" from the list of services provided by the Ministry of Transport, Communications and High Technologies.
A new page containing the terms of the agreement on online application for an electronic signature will open. After familiarizing himself with the terms of the agreement, the user must check the "I accept the user rules" box at the bottom of the page and click on the "CONTINUE" button.
Then, he must check the "Bring PIN data" box. The system will generate automatically PIN data.
After filling in the remaining fields, the user must select the type of an electronic signature certificate carrier (USB-token, Smart Card ) and click on the "CONFIRM" button to submit the application.
Citizens can get the ordered electronic signature certificates at Registration Centers located in the branch post offices of Azerpost LLC. The Registration Centers are available in Baku and all regions of the country. The citizen can get the certificate only after producing his ID card.
Presently, the National Certification Services Center provides electronic signature certificates in 2 carriers:
Smart Card carrier – a smart card holding an electronic signature certificate.
USB carrier – a USB token (similar to a flash card) holding an electronic signature certificate.
To order an electronic signature certificate, the citizen must choose the type of an electronic signature certificate carrier (Smart Kart or USB token), make payment and submit his application.
The citizen who has chosen Smart Kart can also order a reader device on the same page. USB token does not require a card reader because it is directly connected to the PC.
Citizens don’t have to make any payments for using electronic signature certificates issued by the National Certification Services Centre. After making a single payment, the citizen will be able to use the electronic signature certificate for 3 years without paying any service fees.
The electronic signature is a fully-fledged signing tool complying with the international security standard FIPS 140-2.
