Read this if:
- You use Microsoft Sharepoint and

Sharepoint is a great tool to collaborate on various document workflows, inside and outside your organization.
Once you have created a document, you will probably also want to sign it yourself or get someone else to sign it with a real Qualified Electronic Signature, legally valid at the highest possible level in the European Union according to the eIDAS regulation.
Historically, you would probably download the document and use some desktop application and email to get it signed by everyone. And of course worry about how the counterparty actually signs the document, do they have the right software and digital signature solution, acceptable by your legal standards.
There’s a better way- get your documents signed without leaving Sharepoint, with methods including Baltic Smart-ID and Mobile-IDs, Nordic BankIDs, ZealID, Evrotrust, eParaksts, itsme, SPID, MitID, Halcom, various national ID cards, smartcards, Portuguese Chave Movel, Swisscom and dozens more.
