Electronic Signatures
As an agent, it's important to know that NFIP insurers are encouraged to use electronic signatures to streamline processes and enhance the customer experience. FEMA fully supports the use of electronic signatures and ensures they are legally valid, provided they meet certain criteria.
To comply with requirements, electronic signatures must:
- Be in an acceptable electronic format;
- Clearly indicate the signer's intent to sign the document;
- Be attached to or associated with the signed document;
- Include a method to identify and authenticate the signer; and
- Ensure the integrity of the signed document is preserved.
Agents should verify that electronic signatures meet these standards and align with their insurer's policies and applicable laws.
