eIDAS: legally conducting business transactions within and outside the EU
Want to improve the safety and efficiency of your company or organization? Carefree and legally valid business transactions within and outside the EU? Or create a great digital user experience for all your important customers, partners, and stakeholders? It’s all possible thanks to the eIDAS regulation: the European framework for electronic identification and business transactions.
What is eIDAS?
eIDAS is an abbreviation for “Electronic Identification, Authentication & Trust Services.” It is a European regulation that offers a framework that ensures that companies, organizations, and governments can trade and interact with each other more easily, faster and safer. Of course, these digital transactions and interactions are entirely legal and independent of the relevant European country in which they occur. The eIDAS regulation is, therefore, the most essential part of the EU’s digital agenda, as it increases and facilitates digital security and innovation among all EU Member States.
Did you know that organizations with a public function have been legally obliged since 2018 to recognize and allow electronic identities created under the frameworks and guidelines of eIDAS? This way, an EU-citizen can easily register with their eID at a foreign university, register with the relevant municipality, and receive care from the local GP.

How does the eIDAS regulation work?
The aim of the European Union is that companies and individuals can identify themselves quickly and reliably so that they can interact with each other safely and legally (think of trade, business transactions, exchanging confidential and sensitive information, etc.). That is why, in addition to frameworks and guidelines, the EU has established strict laws and regulations that companies, organizations, and governments must comply with. All this comes together in the eIDAS principle. In concrete terms, the eIDAS consists of five different solutions, which are almost always used side by side since they are complementary to each other.
eID
Reliably and securely establish the identity of your customers, partners & stakeholders.
eSignature
