The Zheliban app, an online administrative service platform widely used in Zhejiang province, recently allowed users to apply for the mineral resource exploration permit, which is issued by the Zhejiang Provincial Department of Natural Resources.

The app has so far amassed 297 kinds of electronic certificates or licenses that are related to almost all administrative service items that are frequently used by individuals and enterprises in the province. Some of the electronic documents can even be checked by scanning QR codes.

More than 53 million electronic certificates have been applied for and awarded through the app, including 2.08 million business licenses and 19.87 million medical insurance cards.

Residents in the Yangtze River Delta region, which encompasses Shanghai as well as the provinces of Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Anhui, can use the app to book tickets to some 110 libraries, 120 museums, and 160 tourist attractions in Zhejiang.
