Cross-Border Information Exchange
Handling matters such as death and inheritance across countries is often complex and stressful. The Nordic DigiGov Lab is therefore developing a proof of concept for automated information exchange in the life event death and inheritance. We aim to demonstrate not only the technical feasibility, but also the societal value of cross-border digital services.
Simplifying Life Events Across Borders
The Nordic DigiGov Lab is developing a prototype for automated cross-border information exchange, starting with the life event death and inheritance. Today, citizens and families face long, fragmented processes when a person passes away in another country. Our goal is to make these procedures seamless, secure, and user-friendly – ensuring that rights and obligations are recognised across the Nordic-Baltic region.
Why It Matters
Inheritance and other post-death processes involve multiple authorities across borders. Current manual handling is time-consuming, inconsistent, and stressful for citizens. With automated exchange, families can focus on grieving – not bureaucracy.
What We Aim to Deliver by 2025
- A tested prototype for automated data exchange between at least two Nordic countries.
- A cost-benefit analysis proving the efficiency and value of cross-border exchange.
- User Story & Business Case: Establish practical user scenarios that demonstrate the benefits of cross-border digital services.
Key Objectives
- Prototype Development: Test a solution for the automated exchange of information between authorities in different countries.
- Secure and Trusted Exchange: Ensure that information flows between countries in a way that is robust.
