The duty to give reasons for administrative decisions is a fundamental principle in administrative law that ensures transparency and accountability of public institutions. This study explores the impact of digital transformation on the implementation of this principle by addressing the question: "What challenges and opportunities does digital transformation pose for the implementation of the duty to give reasons in administrative law?" Using a descriptive-analytical method, it examines the challenges and opportunities of digital transformation within the framework of the European Union. The challenges include opaque algorithms, legal inconsistencies, institutional resistance, and unequal access, encompassing both technical complexities and social disparities. In contrast, the opportunities involve enhanced transparency, improved equitable access, reduced human error, and facilitated judicial and civic oversight. Technologies such as interpretable artificial intelligence and multilingual platforms, when designed adaptively, optimize user experience for diverse groups and build public trust. However, limitations such as the lack of digital infrastructure in underprivileged areas and the need for digital literacy hinder the full realization of this principle in digital environments. These experiences, considering the shared challenges of administrative digitalization—such as the need for infrastructure and technological literacy—can inform legal and technical reforms in Iran. Strengthening the implementation of the duty to give reasons for administrative decisions in the digital age requires coordinated policymaking and investment in modern technologies.
