- Look at the data already posted on Askgov.ge, maybe a similar request has already been sent?
- Check the website of the public institution. Maybe the data of interest to you has already been published?
- The legislation (Szak Article 78) requires us to indicate the addressee in the application. Therefore, it is preferable to start writing the text by mentioning the public institution to which you are applying.
- Remember, applying with short and clear sentences will make it easier for public agencies to better understand the content of your requested information, which means that they will get back to you sooner. However, when requesting data, be sure to specify the data period.
- At the end of the letter, you have the right to choose the format in which the information will be provided (CSV, XML, PDF, etc.).
