Summary/Abstract: Until recently the electronic platform, known as ePUAP, through which entrepreneurs can handle official matters via the Internet, has not been very popular. It was considered that the main reason was the requirement to have payable qualified electronic signature. Thus so called trusted profile, which is a free equivalent to an e-signature, has been launched. A new method of confirming the identity in public administration systems was introduced by the revised Act on computerisation of public service. On this basis, two regulations were issued, first on the scope and terms of use an electronic platform for government services and the second on the principles of validation, renewal, exploitation and revocation of the trusted profile on electronic platform for government services. Both came into force on 9th of June 2011. With these improvements, platform is gaining more and more supporters and thus becomes the central place of e-services. The article is a specific instruction, which describes how to take first steps on ePUAP.
