According to the roadmap of Project 06, currently, 4/5 groups of utilities have been applied, creating favorable conditions for agencies, businesses, and people in handling administrative procedures and other civil, economic, and commercial transactions. People and businesses can completely operate and perform administrative procedures on the Online Public Service Portal anywhere and at any time, instead of having to go directly to State agencies as before; during the implementation process, people only have to declare information once but can perform many public services; all citizen information is confidential, accurate, and cannot be falsified because the information is authenticated from the national population database, which is original data assigned by the Government to the Ministry of Public Security for management.

In particular, creating and using a VNeID electronic identification account will be the most effective and optimal method of authenticating personal information for people when their Household Registration Book and Temporary Residence Book expire after December 31, 2022. At the same time, a level 2 electronic identification account helps citizens replace their chip-embedded ID cards and other integrated documents displayed on the VNeID application such as: Driver's license, vehicle registration, health insurance, bank account... When performing administrative and civil transactions, people will minimize the documents they have to carry, perform financial transactions such as: Paying electricity and water bills; paying social insurance and health insurance; transferring and receiving money...
