Benefits of smartphone Mounting
- My Number Card is used by more than 70% of the residents. It is a passport of digital society that can be used for identity verification both in person and in person. In addition to various administrative procedures and online applications for private service, and the use of health insurance card and library cards, the use of Wi-Fi is being expanded to include use in the event of disasters and emergencies.
- Since many people carry smartphone on a daily basis, it is expected that the convenience will be further improved by installing it in iPhones.
- In addition, we are submitting a bill to revise the law so that the matters described on the face of the My Number Card can be installed on the smartphone. Assuming the bill is passed, it will be possible to use it for identity verification, age verification, and address verification in various scenes as in the case of the My Number Card. In addition, assuming the necessary institutional and system allowances, the qualifications and certificates that the person has will be displayed on the screen of the smartphone.
