eIDAS Qualified Registered Email

The smarter alternative to a registered letter: faster, safer, and more cost-effective

Instant, secure, EU-wide compliance, and effortless for both sender and recipient.

eIDAS

Legal Certainty

Same legal status as a registered letter, recognised EU-wide.

Save time

Type, send, and deliver instantly, no postal delays.

Cut Costs

Reduce costs by up to 10x compared to physical registered post.

Stay compliant

100% GDPR, NTA 7516, and eIDAS proof. All data stays within the EU.

Why Choose Qualified Registered Email?

When a message needs to hold up in court, standard secure email isn’t enough. eIDAS Qualified Registered Email gives you the legal certainty, speed, and cost savings your organisation needs without compromising privacy or ease of use.

Perfect for legal notices, government decisions, financial statements, contracts, compliance notifications, and any communication where proof of delivery is critical.

Why choose eIDAS

How eIDAS registered mail with SecuMailer works

From send to secure in five seamless steps.
Step 1

Write and send

Write your message in your usual email client, such as Outlook, Microsoft 365, or Google Workspace. Simply send it with one click.

Step 2

Qualified timestamp and proof generation

As part of the delivery process, the message is sealed with a qualified electronic timestamp and every step, from sending to delivery to receipt, is logged in a tamper-proof audit trail. This process makes your email legally valid.

Step 3

Recipient authentication

The recipient receives a notification and authenticates their identity. After that, the registered email is delivered directly to their inbox. This ensures the message reaches the right person, securely and verifiably

Step 4

Direct inbox delivery

Once authentication is complete, the email is delivered directly to the recipient’s inbox. Once it’s delivered, the email is removed from our server.

Step 5

Proof of delivery

Both sender and recipient receive confirmation of delivery including proof that holds up in court.
