Abstract: The Government of Bangladesh has been undergoing a massive transformation in providing e-government services to its citizens and businesses since 2009. Although e-government services do hold promising merits, the adoption of e-government services is not that significant in Bangladesh. This study aims to identify the factors which drive end-users to adopt e-government services. In this study, the Surokkha vaccine service has been taken as a sample e-government service. Drawing on the extended UMEGA model, this study uses the structured equation modelling (SEM) approach through PLS-SEM to explore the behavioural intention of the end users. The findings revealed that effort expectancy, facilitation conditions, and perceived service quality have a significant influence on behavioural intention to use. Also, there are no such differences between male and female groups while adopting e-government services except for effort expectancy and facilitation condition variables. Several practical implications have been recommended to policymakers for making more user-driven e-government services.
