Centre of Excellence for Civil Registration and Vital Statistics (CRVS) Systems
Abstract
The National Steering Committee for Civil Registration and Vital Statistics (CRVS) and Identification was set up in February 2017 and is chaired by the Minister of Interior. Its main responsibility is to facilitate the implementation of the National Strategic Plan for Identification (2017- 2026). CRVS business processes are gradually becoming digitized. The Centre for Civil Registration Data Management recently introduced a cloud-based database. A key priority for the government of Cambodia is drafting the Civil Registration, Identification and Vital Statistics Law and submitting it to the national assembly, and creating a universal ICT-based civil registration system.
