Signer

Will the signer receive a copy of the document?

Yes, the document will be available for download 30 days before it is removed.

What data can be seen in the document?

In the signature, your full name will be recorded. In the embedded signing certificate, the last four characters of NRIC will also be embedded in the document.

Can someone sign on a person's behalf?

Yes, if the signer is legally authorised to sign on behalf of another person. The signer would use his own Singpass account to sign, similar to what he would do for wet ink signature.

Can I sign on Signify without Singpass?

No. Singpass is required. This is because the Electronic Transactions Act recognises signatures made using certificates issued by Accredited Certificate Authorities (CA) as Secure Electronic Signatures. Sign with Singpass uses signing certificates issued by an accredited CA, Assurity.

How long will documents be available for download for signee?

If the document is not deleted by the admin through the platform or APIs, they will be available for 30 days after all signatories have signed the document.

Can more than 1 person sign at the same time?

While the invitation to sign can be sent to more than 1 person, only one person can sign at a given time. There will be an error message that pops up to try again later if a signing session is ongoing.

Is bulk signing possible?

This is not supported at the Sign with Singpass protocol does not allow signing on multiple documents or place multiple signatures at a time yet. If this is made possible in future, we will also consider!
