Attached is an article from our BLOG summarizing the 10 main points of the entry into force of Law 11/2023 (HERE).
There are three main changes that will affect our daily lives:
- The first is the deposit of all the signed documents in the electronic notary's office, being a faithful reflection of the paper document (matrix, united, diligences and notes).
- The second major change is the possibility of video-signing certain types of documents with a digital certificate once the citizen is registered in the notarial portal;
- and finally, the creation of electronic authorized copies that replace paper with the same effectiveness and validity.
After 21 days of implementation we have encountered the following casuistry:
REGARDING THE NOTARIAL PORTAL (PNC):
- Citizens who wish to carry out procedures must fill in the form and validate their cell phone and contact email address. The procedure is simple and is completed by uploading the identity document to the platform. We have validated it and it works correctly for citizens identified with DNI, NIE and PASSPORT.
- The most practical way to access and sign is to use a digital certificate. We recommend that of the Fábrica Nacional de Moneda y Timbre, although there are several issuing entities certified by Ancert.
- The accessing citizen will be able to consult all his deeds history between January 1, 2007 and November 8, 2023. The deeds signed after the entry into force of the law are yet to be published.
AS FOR THE VIDEO SIGNATURE:
- Since the beginning we have been able to successfully perform 2 video signatures . Although it is a very new technology and has its limitations, it has not been complex to perform once the client is registered in the portal and has the digital certificate to sign.
- The connection is made with an application integrated in the web browser and is intuitive and simple. We expect that as citizens register, the number of documents granted by this method will increase.
REGARDING THE ELECTRONIC AUTHORIZED COPY:
- We have already issued the first electronic authorized copies with secure verification code (CSV).
- The process is managed from Word itself and in parallel to the deposit of the document, although it can be issued at a later date, always for documents signed after November 9, 2023.
- The document is published in the notary's electronic office and the CSV is generated quickly and easily in SIGNO to be sent to the client.
- Once uploaded to the electronic site, it is shared with the client by means of an e-mail in which we provide a link to its electronic authorized copy. This delivery method provides authenticity and legal validity before third parties. We believe that little by little it will replace the paper because for its consultation and validation it is not necessary to be registered in the notary portal of the citizen.
most frequent doubts about electronic protocol and video signature:
In SIC, within the section "Law 11/2023. Digitalization of notarial and registry actions" you can find a document with questions and answers about existing doubts in relation to the implementation of Law 11/2023, two publications have been issued: volume 1 y volume 2.
Also attached (HERE in singular and HERE plural), basic templates for any electronic deed granted by video signature through the Notarial Citizen Portal.
MODIFICATION OF THE SINGLE COMPUTERIZED INDEX. NEED TO REPORT SEPARATELY THE NUMBER OF PAGES ON PAPER / TELEMATIC SUPPORT:
As of November 9, 2023, the Single Computerized Index is modified to incorporate as a mandatory field to be reported in each public instrument the number of pages of the paper support matrix separately from the number of pages in the electronic support.
