THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 July 2014 on electronic identification and trust services for electronic transactions in the internal market and repealing Directive 1999/93/EC (1), and in particular Article 9(5) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
Notification of electronic identification schemes by Member States is a prerequisite of mutual recognition of electronic identification means. |
(2) |
Cooperation on interoperability and security of electronic identification schemes requires simplified procedures. Since the cooperation between Member States referred to in Article 12(6) of Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 and regulated in detail in Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2015/296 (2) already requires the use of the English language, the same solution for the purposes of the notification of electronic identification schemes should facilitate reaching interoperability and security of the schemes. However, translation of already existing documentation should not cause unreasonable burden. |
(3) |
Schemes may involve multiple parties issuing the electronic identification means and/or multiple levels of assurance. For the sake of clarity and legal certainty, the notification of such schemes should however be a single process, with separate notification forms for each party issuing the electronic identification means and/or for each level of assurance. |
(4) |
The organisation of electronic identification schemes varies among Member States involving public and private sector entities. Although the purpose of the notification form should be to give as precise information as possible, among others, on the various authorities or entities involved in the electronic identification process, it should not aim at listing e.g. all local municipalities when those are involved. In that case, the respective field of the notification form should identify the level of the authority or entity involved. |
(5) |
Providing a description of electronic identification schemes prior to notification to other Member States as set out in Article 7(g) of Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 is a prerequisite of mutual recognition of electronic identification means. The notification form set out in this implementing act should be used in the context of providing a description of the scheme to other Member States, in order to enable peer review as set out in Article 10(2) of Implementing Decision (EU) 2015/296. |
(6) |
The deadline for the Commission to publish a notification, as provided for in Article 9(3) of Regulation (EU) No 910/2014, should be counted from the day when the complete form is submitted. The notification form should not be considered complete if the Commission needs to request additional information or clarification. |
(7) |
In order to ensure uniform use of the notification form, it is appropriate for the Commission to provide guidance to the Member States in particular with regard to whether changes to the notification form may lead to re-notification. |
(8) |
The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee referred to in Article 48 of Regulation (EU) No 910/2014, |
