Qualified Electronic Signatures (QES) is equivalent to a handwritten signature in terms of legal effect under eIDAS standards.  It is accepted in all of the EU's member nations.

With the ZealiD, you can use Touch or FaceID to utilize a legally binding signature to sign digital contracts after completing a quick and easy in-app registration process. The in-app registration verifies the recipients personal digital signature and identity. QES is available for Enterprise Plan.
