According to <a href="http://www.ghana.gov.gh/index.php/media-center/news/975-e-registrar-portal-launched-in-accra">ghana.gov.gh,</a>
 Ghana has launched an e-registrar portal. The portal is aimed at 
streamlining business registrations in the country. According to the 
media release, the Portal will be integrated with the Ghana E-Payments 
Portal (GEPP) and the Ghana Revenue Authority e-Tax Portal and make use 
of the Tax Identification Number (TIN) to identify portal users. Users 
can access the portal via <a href="http://www.rgd.gov.gh/">www.rgd.gov.gh</a> or <a href="http://www.rgdservices.com/">www.rgdservices.com</a>.

According to the statement, the Minister for Communications, Dr 
Edward Omane-Boamah, stated that: “The portal was a strong statement of 
commitment by government to Ghanaians as the online community was an 
emerging digital economy.”

The portal, Dr Omane-Boamah said, would enhance efficiency and 
effectiveness in securing business and company registration, estate 
administration and marriage registration through prior booking, 
particularly as it came with an electronic payment facility.

“This will enable clients to access the services from their homes, offices, anywhere around the earth and at the same time, pay for the services through the government online payment system studied 
by the National IT Unit through the Ministry of communication”, Dr 
Omane-Boamah.

Furthermore, he said, the E-Registrar portal was intended to provide 
trust and confidence to accessing services online on the benefits of 
time saved and cost reduced, and give others the opportunity to enjoy 
the convenience it brought, as well as eliminate middlemen, popularly 
known as “Goro Boys” and long queues. 
The statement revealed that Dr Omane-Boamah reiterated government’s 
commitment to transforming service delivery within the public agency to 
enable them deliver electronic services to the citizenry by focusing on 
building trust for the users and consumers as well as establishing 
ground rules for the digital market place while enhancing  the 
information infrastructure for new commas and maximizing the benefits of
 E-services.
