Odoo Sign legality in Thailand
|
|
==============================

|
|
|
Legal framework for electronic signatures in Thailand
|
|
=====================================================
|
|
|
|
In Thailand, electronic signatures are regulated under the `Electronic Transaction Act B.E. 2544 <https://www.etda.or.th/getattachment/8faa736b-3235-49c8-8b01-d37ff53a9a45/ENG-Version.aspx>`_.
|
|
The law governs transactions performed through electronic means and the use of digital signatures.
|
|
The key points of the law include:
|
|
|
|
- **Legal recognition**: electronic signatures are legally equivalent to handwritten signatures if
|
|
they meet certain criteria.
|
|
- **Reliability and security**: electronic signatures must be created with a secure method that can
|
|
reliably identify the signatory and ensure the integrity of the signed document.
|
|
|
|

Potential exceptions
|
|
====================

|
|
|
While Odoo Sign is broadly applicable, there are certain exceptions where electronic signatures may
|
|
not be suitable or legally recognized in Thailand:
|
|
|
|
- **Wills and trusts**: documents related to inheritance, wills, and trusts often require
|
|
handwritten signatures.
|
|
- **Real estate transactions**: some property transactions may still require notarized handwritten
|
|
signatures.
|
|
- **Government forms**: specific government forms and applications may mandate physical signatures.
