MoI online services record remarkable increase in number of users

During the second half of 2020, a total of 1356458 residence services were completed through the MoI website.

The online services by the Ministry of Interior (MoI) recorded an increase in the number of users after the Covid-19 precautionary measures were put in place. This was highlighted during an awareness session, organised by MoI Public Relations Department in association with the General Directorate of Passports on Wednesday. “People started to increasingly make use of Metrash2 and MoI website to avail residency services instead of going to service centres after the precautionary measures came into effect,” said Lt. Col. Tariq Eissa al-Aqeedi, Officer, Media and public relations department of General Directorate of Passports.  During the second half of 2020, a total of 1356458 residence services were completed through the MoI website while the number of services during the first half of 2021 stood at 850066. Metrash2 recorded 763635 and 440028 transactions during the second half of 2020 and the first half of 2021.  Al-Aqeedi noted that Metrash2 came as a gift to make services easier for the public without the need to visit government offices. Also, he said the new feature with Metrash2 helps companies with the strength of hundreds of employees complete residence permit renewal easily without human intervention.  New QVC in Tunisia
