The eIDAS Regulation
The eIDAS regulation facilitates cross-border recognition of electronic signatures throughout the EU
The 2014 Regulation on Electronic Identification and Trust Services for Electronic Transaction in the Internal Market (eIDAS) went into effect throughout the European Union on 1 July 2016, replacing Directive 1999/93/EC on electronic signatures. Unlike the Directive, the eIDAS regulation applies equally to each EU Member State.
eIDAS identifies three levels of e-signature:
- Simple Signature
- Advanced Signature
- Qualified Signature (QES)
eIDAS facilitates recognition for QES across the EU. It also confirms that cloud-based signatures can be Qualified Signatures.
OneSpan provides a solution for standard, advanced, and qualified electronic signatures.
We offer you a seamless and secure signing experience, on one single platform, facilitating compliance with local regulations wherever your offices are located.
