Can we integrate ZOHO Sign and Aadhaar eSign?

 

Zoho Sign integrates with Aadhaar eSign to allow users to digitally sign documents using their Aadhaar number:

How Does this Integration work?
  • A ‌Zoho Sign administrator enables the digital signature provider integration with Aadhaar eSign.
  • Signers can execute documents using the integration by simply filling in the information fields and choosing to sign via Aadhaar eSign.
  • Signers must enter their Aadhaar number in the eMudhra portal and authenticate themselves with a one-time password (OTP) sent to the phone number associated with their Aadhaar number.
  • After entering the OTP, signers can finish e-signing the document.
Yes ZOHO Sign, in combination with Aadhaar eSign, offers a powerful solution for streamlining business processes. Here are some key points:
  • Aadhaar eSign: This is a method recommended by the Indian government for digital signatures. It carries the same legal recognition as a handwritten signature under the provisions of the Indian IT Act, 2000.
  • Legally Valid: Documents signed using Aadhaar eSign are legally recognized and carry the same weight as handwritten signatures.
  • Secure Authentication: Signers authenticate themselves using their Aadhaar number and a one-time password (OTP) sent to their registered phone number.
  • No Personal Data Storage: Personal user data, including Aadhaar numbers, digital IDs, and OTPs, are not stored anywhere.
  • Higher Legal Applicability: Aadhaar eSign holds a higher degree and scope of legal recognition in India than traditional wet signatures.
  • Data Privacy: Personal user data remains secure and is not stored anywhere.
  • Conforms to Standards: ZOHO Sign adheres to the eSign service specifications defined by India’s Root Certifying Authority.

To use this feature, ZOHO Sign administrators can easily enable the digital signature provider integration with Aadhaar eSign. Users can then upload or import their documents into ZOHO Sign, and signers receive the document and fill in the required information. They enter their Aadhaar number in the eMudhra portal and authenticate using the OTP.

Documents signed using Aadhaar eSign are legally valid and carry the recognized form of signature as per Indian regulations. Sign your important documents using Aadhaar eSign and experience efficient, secure, and legally compliant digital signatures.
