A qualified electronic signature is the most reliable electronic signature. This is an electronic signature with a qualified certificate that has been created on a qualified device such as a smartphone. The certificate is part of a digital code that senders add to their message. These certificates are issued only by special organisations such as ZealiD.

You can use ZealiD if you are at least 18 years old and in possession of a valid ID from one of these countries.

Signing using ZealiD is required when:

• A qualified digital signature is required for the documents concerned, or 
• you or one of the co-signatories does not have, or does not yet have, access to Internet Banking and you cannot identify yourself with iDIN.
