State Government Decentralizes Essential Citizenship Services in the Interior of Pará
Cidadania Stations have surpassed 275,000 services provided, and the Peace Factories, located outside the capital, have already recorded over 400,000 services from January to May 2025.
The promotion of public policies that qualify citizenship and provide greater dignity to the population is not limited to the essential services offered in Belém. Increasingly, the State Government acts strategically to strengthen its commitment to decentralizing services throughout the Pará territory.
The Cidadania Stations, which have already surpassed 275,000 services in Pará this year, are among the state initiatives. In addition to the six units in the Metropolitan Region of Belém (RMB), the municipalities of Itaituba, Marabá, Parauapebas, Santarém, and Tucuruí are included in the complexes. Itaituba and Marabá, for example, are the units with the highest percentage of RG issuance, with 11,270 and 6,620 services, respectively.
“Decentralizing services has been a priority of the current administration, and the five Cidadania Station units distributed in strategic locations are proof of this. They function as true citizenship hubs, bringing the government closer to the population and facilitating access to essential services in a quick, humanized, and efficient manner,” points out Gabriel Perez, Deputy Secretary of Modernization and Administrative Management of the State Secretariat for Planning and Administration (Seplad).
The Cidadania Stations offer the population the issuance of identity cards (RG); consultation for income tax refunds; reception and analysis of processes; CNH services (first license, category change, jurisdiction change, legislation, biometrics, and renewal); issuance of CRV, CRLV, and digital documents; unemployment insurance; issuance of digital work cards; procedural consultation; guidance and protection of consumer rights, analysis of socioeconomic vulnerability, banking services, among other services.
Peace Factories
More than 400,000 services have been provided at the Peace Factories located outside the capital of Pará from January to May 2025. This year, the State Government expanded the number of complexes. The Peace Factories in Castanhal, Capanema, Abaetetuba, Benevides, Marabá, and Bragança have been delivered, joining the previously delivered units in Marituba, Ananindeua, Parauapebas, and Canaã dos Carajás.
“We continue to advance with the expansion of the number of Peace Factories to municipalities in the interior, an important step to ensure that rights and essential services reach all regions of our Pará,” emphasizes Elieth Braga, head of the Strategic Secretariat for Citizenship Articulation (Seac).
Ciretrans have an average of 120 to 200 services every day
The creation of new Regional Traffic Circumscriptions (Ciretrans) outside the RMB is also one of the strategies used by the State Government. Currently, 46 units, Ciretrans A and B, operate, beyond the capital, in Pará, with an average of 120 and 200 daily services related to licensing and vehicles, respectively.
“Ciretrans are the Detran in the municipalities and play a fundamental role in ensuring access to the agency's services throughout Pará. Therefore, we have invested heavily in the expansion, qualification, and modernization of the management of these units. Our commitment is to ensure that the population, regardless of the region they live in, receives services with greater efficiency, transparency, and dignity,” assures Renata Coelho, General Director of the State Department of Traffic of Pará (Detran).
Programming student Pedro Porpino, a resident of Castanhal, is one of the people recently served at the Ciretran in the municipality. “I needed to change my provisional National Driver's License (CNH) to the definitive one. The service was quick, and I was able to resolve it in a short time; it was great and exceeded my expectations. I felt satisfied with the service,” he said.
