Not all electronic signing methods carry the same legal certainty, and the difference shows only in a dispute. A publication by Nermin Sefić.

Not all forms of electronic signing carry the same level of legal certainty, and the difference only becomes visible in a dispute.
A scanned signature inserted into a PDF and a qualified electronic signature under the eIDAS regulation are legally different categories, even though in everyday practice they look similar.
For higher-value contracts or cross-border transactions, the level of legal certainty of a digital signature should be a deliberate decision, not the default setting of whatever software happens to be in use.
The documentation trail — who signed, when, from which device, and with what identity-verification method — matters just as much as the signature itself when a document needs to serve as evidence.
Companies that standardise the level of electronic signature according to the value and type of document avoid having its validity questioned later, at the moment it's most costly.
