It is used for ~most~ paperwork you have to submit whether it is a driver&#8217;s license, passport, or the like. <br \/>  <br \/>  Now, you can get your ekhraj eid with the click of a few buttons. Here&#8217;s the process:<br \/>  <br \/>  1. Go to the website of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dgcs.gov.lb\/\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">Directorate General of Civil Status<\/a>. <br \/>  <br \/>  2. Select &#8220;ekhraj eid electronic&#8221; print.<br \/>  <br \/>  3. Fill out the form.<br \/>  <br \/>  4. Submit it at your place of origin on ID (not residence).  <br \/>  <br \/>  After the first submission, you will be able to submit a request at your place of residence, and not have to bother sending paperwork back and forth across towns and villages.<br \/>  <br \/>  Sounds good? A touch flawed but not bad! <br \/>  <br \/>  Watch the video below for more details:<br \/>  <br \/>    <iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/hcYlNS3WW9Y\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>  ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Digitizing paperwork and forms may be a thing of the past in most countries, but here in Lebanon, we&#8217;re just getting started.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":113,"featured_media":434777,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_preview_accessed":0,"footnotes":""},"tags":[2064],"media-embed-type":[],"class_list":["post-60660","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-blog","tag-local-services"],"authorship":[144],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.3 (Yoast SEO v27.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>You Can Now Make An &quot;Ekhraj Eid&quot; Online...
