Types of electronic signatures
Zaktualizowano 2026-05-28
1. What are they and what are they for?
Signature types are specific methods of signing documents, assigned to one of the signature groups (coded e.g. SES / AES / QES).
⚠️Note: If you need to configure the type of signatures or expand with additional options - contact the eFOB team. The current list also includes functionalities that are still in the prototype/development phase.
2. Example types of signatures in the system
SES
- Facsimile – simple graphic signature (text or scan of the signature)
AES (disabled/unavailable by default)
- Autenti (AES)
- Adobe Sign (AES)
- DocuSign (AES)
- Parchment (AES)
- Signius (AES)
- mObywatel + eFOB (AES)
QES
- KIR (QES) – qualified electronic signature embedded in eFOB
- Handwritten – traditional signature on the document
- Signius (QES) – one-time qualified signature with video verification
3. Managing signature types
In the Groups window it is also possible to edit and deactivate signature types assigned to a given group.
The administrator can:
- search for signature types,
- activate or block signature types,
- arrange the order,
- edit descriptions visible to end users.
