Bakcell, The First Mobile Operator and The Leading Mobile Internet Provider of Azerbaijan, is pleased to announce a launch of mobile signature service (Asan imza) in collaboration with the State Agency for Public Service and Social Innovations under the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan and Best Solutions. Now Bakcell customers can confirm their identity, access e-services and use digital signatures via Mobil ID service.
The service can be activated to the customer’s existing number or a new SIM card. In order to activate the mobile signature service on an existing number, the customer requires a duplicate SIM.

Individuals, legal entities and government bodies (or the persons representing them) need to submit their ID cards and a letter from their organization to Bakcell Customer Care Centre representatives.
