01

Use an official address

Type the website address yourself or follow a link from a known government page. Check the domain name carefully.
What should you prepare?

No documents are needed to check a website address.

Please note

A government symbol or logo alone does not prove a website is official.

02

Do not give verification codes to anyone else

A one-time code and password are for your own identification. If someone requests them by phone or message, stop and check with the official authority.
What should you prepare?

Your login details remain private.

Please note

Even someone claiming to be a service representative should not receive your password.

03

Store documents on a secure device

Download documents only to your own device, use a screen lock and avoid saving on a public device.
What should you prepare?

A secure folder or storage location you control.

Please note

Do not upload sensitive certificates to information websites that are not the handling authority.

04

Sign out and check submission confirmation

After a sensitive action, sign out on a shared device and save submission confirmation safely.
What should you prepare?

Reference number or official confirmation.

Please note

If you suspect details were exposed, contact the service's official support channel.

Official sources

These links let you check with the responsible authority. The website's verification date does not guarantee that every detail has remained up to date since then.
