The Authority for the Digitalization of Romania (ADR) announces the production launch of the ROePAS platform — a digital infrastructure designed for the delivery and management of electronic public services.
ADR acts as the national coordinating authority for the implementation of Regulation (EU) 2018/1724 on the Single Digital Gateway, ensuring that citizens and businesses have access to information, online procedures, and assistance services. In this context, ROePAS is part of the project “Implementation of the Government Cloud Infrastructure,” funded through the National Recovery and Resilience Plan, Component 7 – Digital Transformation.
The platform is available at https://roepas.ro
The official production launch marks an essential milestone in the digital transformation of public administration, in line with ADR’s mission to develop secure, interoperable digital services centered on the needs of citizens and the business environment.
What is new in ROePAS
The ROePAS platform is integrated with the Single Digital Gateway and the European “Your Europe” platform, facilitating access for citizens and businesses to information and online procedures at both national and European level.
The new platform provides a single access point for digital public services and brings a series of significant improvements:
-
Centralized access to digital services;
-
Integrated electronic workflows — requests for various services can be processed by multiple institutions without repeated submissions;
-
Standardized public services — reusable across local public administration;
-
Cross-border exchange of administrative documents between institutions, avoiding repeated requests for the same documents through the technical Once-Only system;
-
Authentication using electronic identification means (eIDAS, ROeID);
-
Integrations with MJ, ONRC, ANAF;
-
Chatbot, live chat, and ticketing system;
-
Feedback system connected to Your Europe.
Depending on the current stage of digitalization of the systems managed by public institutions, one of the following configuration and integration methods may be used in order to set up the procedures provided for by the Regulation within the portal:
Integration type 1: Exclusively within the portal
-
The institution does not have its own IT system and will manage the procedure exclusively in the portal;
-
The procedure will be configured in the portal;
-
Requests received will be processed through the portal.
Integration type 2: Partially within the portal
-
The institution has an IT system without a citizen-facing interface (back office only);
-
The procedure will be configured in the portal;
-
Requests will be initiated in the portal, processed in the institution’s IT system, and the response will then be sent back through the ROePAS portal.
Integration type 3: Exclusively within the institution’s portal
-
The institution has an IT system that enables procedures to be carried out fully online for obtaining a service;
-
The procedure will be configured in the portal;
-
Requests will be initiated in the institution’s IT system, while the ROePAS portal will only redirect the authenticated user to the institution’s system.
For more details, please consult the Guides section (Technical Integration Documentation).
Through these functionalities, ROePAS offers:
-
a modern and intuitive interface centered on user experience;
-
clear structuring of administrative procedures and required documents;
-
standardization of the way public services are published;
-
alignment with European requirements;
-
enhanced interoperability;
-
support for the full digitalization of administrative workflows;
-
reduced administrative burden and increased efficiency;
-
protection of personal data in accordance with the applicable legislation;
-
rapid access to information and procedures, including cross-border services within the EU;
-
migration of over 5,000 procedures previously available in PCUE, ensuring continuity of existing services.
Through the implementation of ROePAS, public administration takes an important step toward simplifying the interaction between the state, citizens, and the business environment.
Commitment to service continuity and modernization
The production launch of the new platform represents an essential step in strengthening the governmental digital ecosystem, ensuring:
-
enhanced interoperability;
-
security and compliance with European standards;
-
a consistent user experience;
-
more efficient administrative processes.
Public institutions migrated from the former PCUE portal will go through a stage of updating their institutional profile and public services within the new platform.
Until these updates are completed by each institution:
-
the PCUE platform remains available, and existing public services will not be interrupted;
-
continuity in service delivery to citizens and businesses is ensured;
-
the transition is carried out gradually, without affecting access to public services.
Citizens will be able to access online services through the new platform after the process of updating and validating the information and services published by the migrated institutions is completed.
Training and onboarding schedule for institutions
To support an efficient transition to the new infrastructure, ADR has established a dedicated training and onboarding schedule for public institutions.
This includes:
-
technical sessions presenting the platform’s functionalities;
-
operational guides for administering the institutional profile;
-
dedicated support for configuring and publishing online public services;
-
assistance throughout the process of updating and validating the data migrated from PCUE.
The purpose of this initiative is to ensure a uniform, compliant, and efficient implementation, while also increasing the quality of digital services offered to citizens.
Openness to feedback and continuous improvement
The implementation team remains open to receiving feedback from public institutions, the business environment, and citizens, in order to continuously optimize the platform.
The suggestions and observations received will contribute to improving functionalities, simplifying digital workflows, and increasing the accessibility and usability of online public services, thus reinforcing the strategic directions assumed through PDURO and the national digital transformation policy.
