Up to now the reform has improved services like government to government and government to public, but the real winner of this process is the business sector, where reforms have not only enabled to provide electronic service in important business areas but also expanded the scheme of a sole application or one-stop-shop in different sectors. Keywords: One stop shoreorms , electronic governance, business registration, electronic taces services Electronic Governance and business subjects Reforms applied to facilitate establishment and functioning of business sector are very visible, and as consequence have significantly changed some crucial business aspects in Albania. This paper identifies and illustrates those changes which are considered as most important because of their impact on business operation. Since September 1, 2007 business registration is done through Albanian National Center of Registration based on one stop shop concept. This reform facilitates the whole procedure of business registration, which before that required going to different institutions such as court, tax office, labor inspectorate etc, which was a long time consuming process. Today, this procedure can be done just in the one stop shop within 30 minutes. Before this, business registration application was done only in the court of first instance of Tirana, where all data were registered in Trading Register, and now it can be done in 30 administrative centers of National Center of Registration1. All businesses and enterprises can also take information, download registration forms, conduct electronic researches for their business registration status online. The one stop shop scheme for business registration procedure is implemented, in compliance with the law No. 9723 dated on 03.05.2007, “On the National Center of Registration” and law No 9901 dated on 14.04.2008 “On enterpreneurs and Commercial Companies”. 1 30 National Registration Centers are opened in Tirana - QKR; Tiranë - Municipality; Durrës- Municipality; Elbasan- Municipality; Vlorë – Municipality; Fier – Municipality; Krujë; Rrëshen; Berat; Bulqizë; Gjirokastër- Municipality; Kavajë; Lushnjë; Pogradec- Municipality; Çorovodë; Shkodër- Municipality; Librazhd; Burrel; Bajram Curri; Gramsh; Peshkopi; Tepelenë; Korçë- Municipality; Laç; Lezhë- Municipality; Kukës- Municipality; Ersekë; Përmet; Pukë; Sarandë. 4 For the period September 2007 – April 2011 were registered about 24,706 new companies; these comprise 42.5% of total business companies registered in Tirana (58112). Only in 3 and a half years were registered almost the same number of businesses compared with the number of business registered for 17 years. This fact is an evidence of the big advantage that administrative process has compared with previous process through the courts. National Licensing Center (NLC) is established on June 2009, aiming to replace all lon procedures of licensing application in an one stop shop. Most of the application procedures including information and search for the application status have been replaced with online procedures. Currently, the NLC gives 83 types of licenses, grouped according to predefined areas2, and the old procedures still continue for about 31 types of licenses3. To implement this reform, the following laws have been changed, improved and/or approved: • Law No 10081, dated on 23.02.2009, “For licenses, authorizations and permits in the Republic of Albania”. • Law No. 10137, dated on 11.05.2009, “For some addendums to the current

This will reach 14 operators by 2025.” Eight operators will add more than 1 million subscribers between 2019 and 2025. China Unicom will win the most subs (19.96 million), followed by China Telecom (18.52 million).
