To meet users' increased need for connectivity and interactivity, the State Information Technology Centre (Centre des Technologies de l'Information de l'Etat - CTIE, in French) recently published its smartphone app for Luxembourg's eGovernment portal 'de Guichet'.
This interactive directory lists over 600 competent State and municipal bodies for the various administrative procedures, including:
- full contact details (address, phone number, email, etc.);
- opening hours;
- the opportunity to contact organisations directly from the app;
- the use of geo-location with route suggestions in order to travel to a selected administration;
- a reference to the mobile version of the 'de Guichet' portal;
- a direct link to the news section of 'de Guichet'.
The directory offers the opportunity to sort the various bodies by alphabetical order, theme and geographical location, in addition to providing a search feature.
Apart from the geo-location feature, this app can be used online and offline (without an Internet connection) and is intended for both citizens and businesses.
