The major indicator of information and communications means, national welfare and democratic development in every country is the level of organization and application of the e-Government system. This system bases on the reality of activity of state as an institution serving to properly meet the basic need of society. The continuous, purposeful, strategic “e-development model”, which includes experience of the developed countries as well, is under implementation in the recent years in Azerbaijan to develop ICT, use the existing potential to the maximum and promote the republic’s information potential in the world. The e-Government Project, developed according to “National Strategy on ICT for the development of the Republic of Azerbaijan (2003-2012)”, is implemented as part of the E-Azerbaijan State Programme.
E-Government can function as an effective factor in state’s fight with corruption. Building a sincere relationship between government bodies and citizens, e-Government eliminates misuse of official position, violation of citizens’ rights. The Republic of Azerbaijan, which has changed the fight against corruption into one of the vital objectives of state, has emphasized the intention to use this preference of e-Government.

An efficient organization of e-Government, clearness of its sense and substance, adaptation of citizens to e-regime will bring to the existence of e-democracy.
