FAQs
-
Who does the Esign Act apply to?

Are eSignatures legal?

-
Are electronic signatures legal in the EU?
The eIDAS Regulation (910/2014) sets the legal framework for electronic signatures in the EU. It defines who can use electronic signatures and in what context. To ensure that electronic signatures can be created and validated anywhere in Europe, a number of standards were identified for their implementation.

Do federal eSignature laws specifically give consumers and businesses the right to continue to use paper where desired?

Does Esign apply to commercial customers?
With some exceptions, E-SIGN permits the use and establishes the legal validity of electronic contracts, electronic signatures, and records maintained in electronic rather than paper form.

Does the Esign Act apply to commercial customers?
