As the birth place of fingerprint
identification and one of the first countries in Latin
America to establish a civil registry (CR), Argentina has a
long history of identification. Until 2009, however, its
civil registration and national ID systems suffered from a
number of issues, including noninteroperable civil
registries, between provinces, lack of integration between
CR and ID systems, and slow and inefficient paper-based
processes. Since 2009, however, Argentina has made great
efforts to steadily enroll more than 45 million residents to
establish a robust national digital ID system. Birth
registration is now universal and 98 percent of the
population is in possession of a national ID card, including
more than two million migrants. The national ID agency,
RENAPER (Registro Nacional de las Personas), responded to
more than 230 million queries in 2018 from the public and
private sector creating the foundation for a digital
economy. Since 2009, in the context of a federal country
with autonomous provinces working together with the federal
government, with the support of the Ministry of
Modernization, have implemented a series of innovative
initiatives to create a digital one - stop shop called Mi
Argentina, such as digital birth and death registration,
verifying "proof of life" of pension beneficiaries
remotely, and offering verification services to public and
private institutions. This was achieved through political
commitment at the federal and local levels sustained over 10
years, public investment and legislative reforms on civil
registration, identification, and data protection, and
personal data privacy. |
