Receiving administrative procedures at the Quang Ninh Provincial Public Administration Service Center

Implementing the Prime Minister's direction, Quang Ninh continues to identify promoting administrative procedure reform, creating a favorable and transparent environment to serve people, businesses and investors as a key and continuous task, thereby contributing to promoting local economic growth.

Quang Ninh is currently piloting a one-level public administrative service center under the Provincial People's Committee, implementing non-territorial administrative procedure settlement, optimizing administrative procedure settlement processes, promoting procedure digitization, and reusing online administrative procedure results to create the most convenience for people and businesses. The Quang Ninh Provincial Public Administration Service Center is reorganized on the basis of merging provincial and district-level public administrative centers and commune-level receiving and returning results departments. The center has its headquarters in the province and 13 branches located in districts, towns, and cities. In addition, 156 receiving and returning results departments in communes, wards, and towns are still maintained to ensure service to people at the grassroots level.

Currently, there are 1,717 administrative procedures in the province, of which: 1,319 are at the provincial level, 275 are at the district level, and 123 are at the commune level. Departments, branches, and sectors continue to promote restructuring of the settlement process, decentralization, and maximum authorization for officers to appraise and approve records according to the "5-step on-site" and "5-step electronic environment" processes; 100% of administrative procedures have procedures developed to ensure clear identification of people, work, and processing time. Annually, administrative procedures are reviewed to reduce processing time by 30 to over 60% compared to regulations.

Quang Ninh sets a target of 14% economic growth in GRDP in 2025. Therefore, promoting administrative reform and improving the investment and business environment are extremely important solutions to promote socio-economic development, thereby contributing to the completion of the goals that Quang Ninh has set for this year.
