At the Liberia Revenue Authority’s Digital Symposium, discussions extended beyond digital tax systems to the broader architecture required to support sustainable digital government.

The Government of Liberia, through the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications, is advancing key national platforms, including the e-Liberia portal and the Government Service Bus (GSB). These systems are designed to enable seamless integration and secure data exchange across government institutions, addressing long-standing challenges associated with siloed systems and fragmented service delivery.

This integrated approach aligns with Liberia’s national digital strategy, which prioritizes interoperability and the electronic delivery of government services through connected platforms.

Data sovereignty was also highlighted as a strategic priority. Efforts are underway to upgrade LTC Mobile’s existing data center to Tier III standards to support the secure hosting of government systems. At the same time, preparations continue for the establishment of a National Data Center. These investments are critical to strengthening data control, system resilience, and public trust in digital services.

In addition, the National Digital Postal Address System was identified as a key enabler for improving public service delivery and revenue mobilization. Its implementation will support more accurate property identification, strengthen real estate taxation, and enhance overall tax compliance.

As Liberia progresses in its digital transformation journey, the focus remains on building integrated systems, strengthening infrastructure, and delivering accessible, secure, and citizen-centered services.

Under the leadership of the Chief Information Officer, Sheikh Sheriff, the Government of Liberia today convened a high-level technical consultation to advance the onboarding of priority public services onto the national e-Liberia Platform and their integration through the Government Service Bus (GSB).

This session brought together key Ministries, Agencies, and Commissions to align on a unified approach to digital service delivery—marking the formal rollout of Phase One, which targets sixteen (16) essential government services across civil registration, health, education, immigration, security, and business regulation.

At the core of the engagement was a practical assessment of institutional readiness, where each agency evaluated its current systems and defined the level of support required—ranging from full digitalization to platform integration. This process sets the foundation for a structured onboarding model that reflects the realities of each institution while maintaining a single national standard.

The consultation also established clear coordination mechanisms, including the formation of dedicated “technical online service teams” within each institution, and outlined the implementation roadmap leading into the development of the Digitalization Package.

This is a decisive step toward eliminating fragmented systems and building an interoperable government architecture—where services are connected, data flows securely across institutions, and citizens access government through one unified platform.

The Office of the CIO remains focused on execution—driving coordination, standardization, and delivery of a truly integrated digital government for Liberia.

Government Launches Nationwide Regional Validation of National Data Governance Policy (2026–2030)

The Government of Liberia, through the Office of the Chief Information Officer under the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications, has commenced a nationwide regional validation of the National Data Governance Policy (2026–2030).

The Policy establishes Liberia’s national framework for how data is collected, stored, processed, shared, and protected across public and private institutions. It defines the rights of citizens as data subjects and outlines the responsibilities of institutions handling personal and sensitive information.

As part of a decentralized approach, regional consultations are being held across the country to ensure inclusive participation and national ownership. The Government is engaging citizens, civil society organizations, private sector actors, youth representatives, traditional leaders, and local authorities to ensure the policy reflects local realities.

In Southeastern Liberia, stakeholders from Grand Gedeh, Grand Kru, River Gee, and Rivercess Counties have gathered in Grand Gedeh County to discuss data protection, data sovereignty, cross-border data transfers, and the need for stronger local infrastructure for secure in-country data storage.

Meanwhile, consultations in Central Liberia are bringing together participants from B**g, Nimba, and Lofa Counties. Key issues raised include misuse of personal information, lack of consent, weak oversight systems, and concerns about foreign control of critical national data systems.

With a significant portion of Liberian data currently hosted outside the country, the Policy places strong emphasis on local data hosting, stronger compliance standards, and enforcement mechanisms under Liberian law.

The Office of the Chief Information Officer has confirmed that recommendations from the regional consultations will be consolidated into a final draft for national endorsement. Once adopted, the Policy will guide government institutions, telecommunications operators, financial institutions, health systems, and digital service providers in safeguarding citizens’ data and advancing Liberia’s digital transformation agenda.
