International List of Official Government Website Portals (updated 3/18/2015) - Prof. Woody Horton, Jr.
This is a selected listing of official government website portals (sometimes called official "gateways") that either provide, directly, a great deal of information for the public on many government programs, projects and services, or at least provide links to other sites for finding the needed information.
This is a selected listing of official government website portals (sometimes called official "gateways") that either provide, directly, a great deal of information for the public on many government programs, projects and services, or at least provide links to other sites for finding the needed information.
We would like to thank the many information literacy experts who contributed this information to us so that we could compile this comprehensive listing. Thank you!
These portals (or "gateways") have information on various citizen benefits and services, business permits and licenses, entitlements for special sub-groups of the population such as disabled people, migrants and refugees, foreign workers and students, seniors, children, etc. Also, passport and visa information is often provided, and usually much more.
In some cases the site is available only in the official language(s) used by that country, but in other cases translations are provided for commonly used international languages such as French, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, Chinese, Arabic, English, and so on.
Often you can just add a suffix at the end of the URL to bring up the language you require if it is available (e.g. /en for English; /fr for French; /de for German; /es for Spanish, etc.). Often you can also just use the format: http://www.countryname.
There are several organizations which are tracking e-government programs, such as Global Voices, Global EDGE, and Nations Online Project. However most of these e-Government programs are still evolving, and are incomplete.
There is also a useful site in Spanish that permits you to search for Latin America e-government programs: http://redgealc.org/home/red-
In some cases, there is no single portal for the entire government so you must check each Ministry for the information you need.
In a very few cases we are forced to rely on private sector sites because no public sites are available.
If: (1) your country is missing; (2) you have one or more links for your country's official government website (not necessarily in English), which you would like to add; (3) you believe we've made an error in listing an inappropriate site; or (4) you find a broken link, please emailf.w.hortonjr@att.net
