The subject of e-governance is one of the topics that recently received great attention in the scientific community, given that digital management improves the efficiency of job performance in modern administrative organizations.

And it allows providing better services to citizens.

The problem of the research was that many citizens suffer from bureaucracy and poor service provided when dealing with government service bodies and entities, which often pushes them to participate in some illegal practices such as bribery and mediation, to end their work.

Which leads us to wonder what are the reasons for the interest in digital transformation of services within government agencies?.

Does the application of egovernance in public bodies eliminate administrative corruption?.

In order to answer these questions, the research aimed to identify the concept of administrative corruption, its causes and ways to combat it, to identify the concept of electronic governance and its objectives, to identify the difference between it and e-government, and to study some global experiences in the field of e-governance.

Studying the experience of the United Arab Emirates in combating administrative corruption using electronic governance.

The research relied on the analytical method in terms of both descriptive and quantitative terms, where the descriptive analytical method was used in presenting the study concepts and describing them scientifically accurately.

The research included four chapters, the first chapter was a reference review of previous studies, and it included studies and research related to the topic of the research and the most important results and recommendations proposed for them.

As for the second chapter, it dealt with administrative corruption “the concept, development, and causes.” It included the following sections: the definition of administrative corruption and its features, and the stages of its development, the entrances to administrative corruption and its types, the causes of the spread of the phenomenon of administrative corruption, public corruption in addition to, global experiences in combating administrative corruption, while the third chapter dealt with electronic governance.

The chapter included both the concept of governance, its illusion, its objectives, and its characteristics, the role of governance in reducing financial and administrative corruption, egovernment in addition to e-governance.

As for the fourth chapter, it was entitled Anti-corruption Policies in the Emirates and included the following: The first Arab Emirates in combating corruption, indicators of the performance of the UAE in combating corruption, and the policies and mechanisms of combating corruption in the Emirates.

The study concluded with some results, the most important of which are: the rapid growth in interest in theconcept of governance, especially corporate governance within all economic units, where governance is the effective solution to guarantee the rights of partners within companies, especially investors, where good governance helps in attracting local and foreign investment.

In order for the e-governance process required of it to be effective and efficient, it must be based on the basic principles of traditional governance in the administration and follow up on the mechanisms for their application.

This reduces the burden of the state budget.

The UAE came first at the level of Arab countries in combating corruption, but there is a decline in the value of the corruption index for the UAE from 71 to 69 points, which led to a decline in the global ranking from 21 in 2020 to about 24 in 2021.

Despite this decline, the UAE still occupies the first place in the Arab world, due to the initiatives launched by the state to combat corruption and enhance transparency and integrity.

According to the previous results, the research recommends the need to support the partnership between the public and private sectors in the application of electronic governance, to work in order to achieve more disclosure and transparency.

Some resist change and eliminate those causes.
