About GOSI Electronic Services

The General Organization for Social Insurance (GOSI) is among the first government bodies in terms of applying information technology in its business since 1973. Due to the emergence of e-government concepts and in light of the continuous development of information technology and communications which has a major effect on the achievement of objectives, GOSI adopted information technology to achieve efficient social insurance coverage, thus "GOSI Electronic Services" emerged and have become a strong link within e-government system. GOSI e-services are a quantum leap in the social insurance field, as they include a set of e-channels such as online service, e-payment, GOSI-Phone, direct link service, and Short Message Service (SMS). However, GOSI e-services not only approach you through these channels, but also provide you with proactive services. Now, you can benefit from all GOSI services wherever you are.
