eSign Frequently Asked Questions
Still have some questions? Read on to find out more about this convenient service.
Yes, electronic signatures are legally binding in the United Kingdom. The Electronic Communications Act 2000 and the UK Electronic Identification and Trust Services for Electronic Transactions Regulation provide the legal guidelines for electronic signatures in the UK.
Outside the UK, electronic signatures are widely recognised, but the legal framework varies by region. In the United States, they are governed by the UETA and the ESIGN Act. In the EU they fall under the eIDAS Regulation.
Specific legal requirements may differ in other jurisdictions. They also may depend on the document type, and context.
These laws make sure that electronic signatures are recognised and enforceable, provided they meet certain criteria for authenticity and integrity.
In simple terms, an electronic signature is a replacement for signatures on paper. It proves the identity of the person signing the document.
A digital signature has a completely different function. Instead of proving the identity of the signer, digital signatures protect the integrity of the digital document using encryption. Companies use digital signatures to prevent tampering or forgery of the document.
Most legal documents can be signed with eSignatures. This includes contracts, purchase agreements, employment documents and business forms.
However, some documents may require a traditional signature, such as a will or court document. This will depend on the governing law in your area.
To make an electronic signature valid, there are several general requirements you must meet, such as:
- The signer clearly intends to sign the document
- The signature can be linked to the signer
- The document is one that can legally be signed electronically
While not required by law, the following steps can help avoid disputes:
- Make sure all parties are happy to sign electronically
- Keep the signed document stored and accessible afterwards
- Make a copy available to everyone involved
- Offer a paper option where appropriate
