Kinshasa, September 24, 2024 – The digitalization of administrative procedures in the field of justice in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) takes on a new dimension with the launch of the online submission of application files for the recruitment of bailiffs. This announcement, made by the ad hoc committee in charge of this process, marks a turning point in the modernization of the country’s judicial practices.
The use of a digital platform for the submission of application files represents a significant step forward in terms of efficiency and transparency. Indeed, this method ensures uniform and fair processing of all applications, while facilitating applicants’ access to the profession of bailiff.
This initiative is part of a major reform undertaken by the Ministry of Justice, under the leadership of Minister Constant Mutamba, aimed at improving the functioning of the Congolese judicial system.

Bailiffs play an essential role in the proper functioning of justice as essential relays for the execution of judicial and extrajudicial acts. Their recruitment is therefore a crucial step in ensuring the smooth running of judicial proceedings and ensuring respect for citizens’ rights.
By encouraging the online submission of applications, the Ministry of Justice is paving the way for a profound modernization of the Congolese judicial sector. This approach reflects the authorities’ desire to put in place tools adapted to the challenges of the 21st century and to promote access to justice for all citizens.
