Quest. How to get a state electronic digital signature in Belarus

Now many state organizations in Belarus urgently issue digital signatures on their managers. Why urgent? In particular, because January 1, 2016, the deadline for the fulfillment of the Decree of the President of the Republic of Belarus No. 157 issued on April 4, 2013, according to which all state organizations, and even all open joint-stock companies with a state share of more than 50%, must connect their own departmental electronic document management systems to an interdepartmental electronic document management system, the so-called SMDO. Of course, for starters, these electronic document management systems should be.
And come digital paradise. Gradually, the paper will disappear from the workflow, and everything will be accelerated and automated.
But getting this digital signature is a small quest. Here about this quest here I will write in more detail.
So, the points.

1. To determine who in the organization has the right to sign.
It is clear, like a day, that the director himself (the director, the general director) has the right to sign. But his deputies have such a right by proxy, or by order of the distribution of duties. More on this list may be the chief accountant. So, we determine the circle of persons who will receive EDS by interviewing and studying documents.

2. Preparation of a package of documents for each receiving EDS
Here you need to start a little from the end.
a) First, download the form from the Republican Certifying Center (RTC) site, which is an appendix to the public key agreement. This is a list of customer information.
')
b) We fill in the form for each receiving EDS.

c) We force the lawyers of the organization to issue copies of certificates of registration of the organization and power of attorney for everyone except the general director. The form of the power of attorney cannot be changed, no matter how the lawyers want it, it is reinforced concrete.

d) We go with the filled forms to this very RTC (for the Minsk region at 25, Masherov Ave., Minsk, second floor, “room 3”)
Only from December 1, 4 regional centers of the RTC began their work at the following addresses:

Brest, Lenin St., 22, k.2-3; tel. 8 0162 531423/531426;
Grodno, ul. Uritsky, 12, r.301; tel. 8 0152 772695/742102;
Vitebsk, Lenin St., 12-3, .51; tel. 8 0212 425354/425348;
Gomel, Gagarin St., 49, k.1-4; tel. 8 0232 703920.

e) In RTCs you will be given contracts and invoices.

3. Sign contracts, pay for each invoice.

4. All the big bosses go personally to get the EDS funds.
This is the most interesting, there are nuances. The big bosses are not accustomed (or have already lost the habit) to personally go to some institutions to sit in line for a long time. Therefore, they diplomatically need to sort through what and how to do, and it is better to write a memo.

5. After the managers have received the funds for the EDS, they need to write instructions on how to use these funds.
The most difficult thing about this is not the writing of the instruction itself, but the thought that the digital signature is the same as the usual one on paper, and that it cannot be given to the secretary to sign it. Otherwise, this is the same as giving the pen to the secretary and saying “you will forge signatures for me”. Therefore, the transition to this electronic document - it is still breaking. And all this is ahead.
