All departments should disclose the website of the online service hall , the login path and process of the real-name verification system through the network, media, advertising screen and other means, and encourage the market entities in Beijing to apply for handling the business license certificate, tax-related matters, employees' "Five Insurances and Housing Fund" and other businesses online through the "E-window" online service system and APPs.
