Since the beginning of this year, the DPI has been providing convenient services to support business registration on its portal, thus cutting down the time needed to complete those procedures to six days.

It will also manage business registration dossiers via barcodes to keep a close watch on its employees’ work and the status of dossiers.

Meanwhile, organizations and citizens can give feedback on the working quality and attitude of the DPI’s staff through either its portal or feedback notes at its single-window section. The department also promised to regularly monitor and assess employees’ sense of responsibility, discipline, and activeness in their work, it added.
