Electronic signature in practice

Regulation of qualified electronic signature was passed in Slovakia in 2002 (act No. 215/2002 Coll on Electronic Signature and on the amendment and supplementing of certain acts). Nowadays, electronic signatures with time-stamps are equivalent to handwritten signatures on paper documents.

Electronically, using electronic signatures, it is possible to interact with the courts of the Slovak Republic, the Commercial register of Slovak Republic, Slovak land register, Tax offices and Customs services.

Electronic communication (sending different types of filings, including their attachments as well as receiving court administration and administration of other state bodies) with public authorities is made directly from our law office, without the need of postal services. So that it saves time and money of our clients.

The advantage of electronic signatures is also the fact that one paper copy of each given document is enough for the most of administration requested by government authorities. It means considerable financial savings for verifying signatures and photocopying of documents.

Moreover, using electronic signatures means that judicial and administrative fees are reduced by 50%.

There are some examples of acts to illustrate the reduction of fees as a result of E-signatures.
