Intesa (IBM Group), a company that provides digital solutions to support businesses’ digital transformation journey, is now an European Trust Service Providers certified company to issue electronic seal (eSeal).

Defined by the European eIDAS Regulation, electronic trust services are fundamental to digitalization.

Intesa adds an additional important authorisation from the Italian Digital Agency (AGID): consent for authentication using Electronic ID Cards (eIDs) for those accessing the company's services, as permitted by its status as an accredited service provider.

The obligation for electronic invoicing is expanding in most European countries, but greater cooperation between countries and harmonization of standards and regulations at the European level are needed.
