Our customer stories aren't just stories - they're real-life experiences through which we observe what can really go wrong. We recently received a call from a client who had a qualified electronic signature issued in Poland and encountered a problem using it in another EU country. When trying to sign a document in the Spanish online system, our client was told: „you must have a Spanish signature issued by a Spanish operator”.”. Sound absurd? And rightly so - because it contradicts EU law.
eIDAS regulation (No. 910/2014) clearly states:
Possible reasons:
Such action is contrary to the principle of mutual recognition of qualified digital signatures.
Issue | Legal status |
Qualified Polish signature | Automatically recognized in all EU countries |
Equivalence | Has the force of law as a handwritten signature throughout the EU |
Refusal to recognize it | It is a violation eIDAS, you can file an appeal |
How to defend yourself? | Invoke Articles 24a and 25 of eIDAS + Trusted List Browser |
Polish qualified signature CertumMini/SimplySign works legally and effectively on the territory of the the entire European Union - Without boundaries or additional conditions. With these arguments, you can defend your right to use the signature without problems.
