The short answer is YES!
The long answer is below.
When you or your sales team create Proposals in FreshBooks, with another proposal management software, or even in proposal templates and require an eSignature, the ETA governs the use of electronic signatures in Singapore. The Infocomm Media Development Authority (“IMDA”) of Singapore regulates the use of electronic signatures and provides that an electronic signature is essentially an acknowledgement supplied in an electronic format. Such acknowledgement can be used by a business to demonstrate a partyās intention (e.g., acceptance) and that can electronically be used to authenticate the party involved.
Types of Electronic Signatures
The ETA does not expressly define an electronic signature, but the IMDA provides that examples of an “electronic signature” include:
- A person typing their name into a contract or email concerning the terms of the agreement
- A person electronically pasting their signature into an electronic version of the contract
- A person accessing a contract through a web-based signature platform and clicking to have their name inserted into the contract in the appropriate place
- A person using a finger, light pen, or touchscreen writes their name in the appropriate place in a contract
A ādigital signatureā is a recognised form of an electronic signature with additional requirements regarding its security.
Documents That May Be Signed Electronically
The following categories typically do not impose any requirements on the use of electronic signatures:
- Commercial Agreements (including but not limited to those relating to procurement, software licensing, loan agreements)
- Non-disclosure Agreements
- Corporate Resolutions (if not prohibited by the constitution)
- Board Meeting Minutes
- Singapore Government Filings
- Negotiable Instruments, Bills of Exchange, Promissory Notes, Bills of Ladings and Other Transferable Documents
