Fedict works for the Federal Government and is responsible for e-government. As such, Fedict helps the federal public departments (FPDs) to improve their communication and services to the general public, businesses and civil servants, using information and communication technology. Fedict works with the FPDs, continuously developing new electronic services available via the federal portal www.belgium.be. Fedict has also helped to produce the electronic identity card (eID) and the Tax-on-web system. Fedict also set up campaigns, such as “Pécéphobie” and “Internet for all”, intended to promote computer and Internet use. The number of people able to use e-government services has been increasing as a result. Finally, Fedict is helping to make Belgium an important centre of IT knowledge. The department supports Belgian companies in exporting their know-how and experience in Belgian e-government projects abroad.
