District Commissioners website on Ísland.is

The District Commissioners are the first institutions to move its website to Ísland.is. The website syslumenn.is was closed in May 2021 and all the content had been moved to a new landing page for the District Commissioners of Iceland.

Users entering syslumenn.is will now find a new one.

The role of the site is to provide users with the most information about the organization as well as provide a platform for articles about the service it provides. Amongst other things, it states:

• Brief description of the role of the District Commissioners

• All articles belonging to the District Commissioners appear in the order of how much they are visited, along with powerful search functions

• News and announcements

• Opening hours information, telephone number, address, key e-mail addresses, and other similar information

• Publications, Professional Councils, Data Protection Policy, and other

Their presence on Icelandic institutions is a major factor in their entry into Iceland.is and the framework created for sheriffs in Iceland will serve as a basis for other institutions in the future.

The platform for institutions on Ísland.is was a key factor in the District Commissioners decision on moving its website to Ísland.is and the work will be a foundation for other institutions in the future.

Stefna developed this solution in cooperation with the District Commissioners and Digital Iceland.
