Syria Business Registration Project

Syria Business Registration Project

The Syria Business Registration Project aimed to streamline and digitize the process of starting a business in Syria by developing an online single window for business registration.

Implemented by the Ministry of Internal Economy, with support from UNCTAD, UNITAR, and ESCWA, the system (prototype) was co-developed under UN Digital Government Capacity Building Programme (UNDGP) and is accessible at home-syria.eregistrations.org.
