NATIONAL ELECTRONIC NOTIFICATION SYSTEM​​


Description

UETS is the system established, operated and secured by PTT to carry out notifications prepared electronically by the authorities specified in the Notification Law. It is designed for establishment and operation of the necessary infrastructure to be transmitted to the e-notifications’ recipients via PTT with the irrevocable and undeniable proofs.
Notification recipients can securely access their electronic notifications over the internet whenever they wish.
An electronic notification can be made at a lower cost and at a rate that can be measured in seconds compared to the notification made in the physical environment, thus saving a great deal of cost and labor.
Thanks to the time savings provided by electronic notification, delays due to physical notifications have been reduced to a minimum and judicial processes have been accelerated tremendously.

Replicability

An infrastructure that can be used in other countries besides Turkey has been prepared. This infrastructure can be used in any country that can digitize its judicial processes and issue a standard ID number to citizens, companies and public institutions.


Sustainability

The project was commissioned in a short period of 6 months in 2018. In 2019, when the system was commissioned, 18 million electronic notification messages were sent, 24 million in 2020, and 40 million electronic notification messages were sent in 2021. It is predicted that the number of e-notifications will increase regularly in the following years. The number of accounts opened in the system is approximately 2,270,000, of which approximately 935,000 have been activated. Work continues to increase the number of active accounts.


WSIS values promotion

Our Project respects respect for nature by dijitalization. Thanks to our project, approximately 91 million electronic notifications have been sent from the system, instead of physical mail, so far. With the savings achieved in the use of 3,162 tons of paper, approximately 53,750 trees were saved from being cut down, thus contributing to the protection of nature.
