The European eIDAS (electronic IDentification, Authentication and trust Services) Regulation lays a framework by which electronic signatures have the same legal effect as paper-based signatures across all member states of the European Union.

SignHere is an electronic signature solution that offers Qualified Electronic Signatures, the highest level of electronic signatures foreseen under the eIDAS Regulation.

Using SignHere, in case you wish to submit a document for signing by a counterparty in another member state of the European Union, we recommend that you first verify with that counterparty if he will recognize the validity of the electronic signature in that specific situation.

An electronic signature or e-signature is legally recognized as a valid method to provide consent or approval on electronic documents or forms. Some forms of electronic signatures are considered the electronic equivalent of handwritten signatures.

The qualified electronic signature is the most advanced form of electronic signature according to the requirements of the eIDAS legislation. A qualified electronic signature has the same legal effect as a handwritten signature.
