What is the esign signature

An esign signature is a digital representation of a person's intent to agree to the contents of a document. It serves the same legal purpose as a handwritten signature but is executed electronically. This method enhances efficiency by allowing documents to be signed remotely, streamlining workflows for businesses and individuals alike. With airSlate SignNow, users can easily create, send, and manage esignatures, ensuring that their agreements are legally binding and secure.

After setting up the document, users can send it for signature to one or multiple recipients. Each recipient will receive an email notification prompting them to review and sign the document electronically.

Legal use of the esign signature

Esign signatures are legally recognized under the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce (ESIGN) Act and the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (UETA) in the United States. These laws affirm that electronic signatures hold the same weight as traditional handwritten signatures, provided that both parties consent to use electronic means for signing. This legal framework ensures that businesses can confidently adopt esignatures for various agreements, including contracts, consent forms, and more.
