Gesetzliche Regelung von E-Signaturen in Italien
In Italien ist eine handschriftliche Unterschrift nicht unbedingt erforderlich, um einen unterzeichneten Vertrag rechtsgültig zu machen. Italien hat E-Signaturen im Jahr 2005 mit der Verabschiedung von PbEG L 13, auch Digital Administration Code (DAC) oder Gesetzesdekret Nr Im Juli 2016 ersetzte Italien die EU-Richtlinie durch die Verordnung (EU) Nr. 910/2014, die als eIDAS-Verordnung bekannt ist.
In addition to the eIDAS Regulation and the DAC, Italy uses the Italian Civil Code to govern e-signatures and further customize them at a national level. For instance, the Italian Civil Code allows parties to provide authentic and valid electronically signed documents as admissible evidence in court.
The eIDAS recognizes three types of signatures: the Simple Electronic Signature (SES), Advanced Electronic Signature (AES), and Qualified Electronic Signature (QES). The QES is the most secure and is considered similar to a handwritten signature. It requires the service provider to use a creation device recognized by the EU and issue a certificate.
The DAC recognizes an additional signature called the Digital Signature (DS), which requires two cryptogenic keys: a private one from the signatory and a public one from the recipient.
