Abstract:   More than fifteen years ago, through the benchmarking method, the United Nations began to carry out a survey of the electronisation level of public administration - e-government. Three areas of its level – online services, telecommunication infrastructure and human capital -  have been summarized into a single index called E-government Development Index (EGDI). The  main objective of this research was to provide an overview of the current status of the Visegrad  Group (Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia) in EGDI development and compare the  level of this index. The results show firstly that the monitored group of countries are placed at the  end of EU ranking and secondly that while Poland has improved its level, the Czech Republic is  lagging behind.
 
Keywords:   E-government Development Index, Min-max Method, Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland,  Slovakia
