e-Deliveries is a service that will enable the sending, receiving, and storing of online correspondence.
It differs from regular email in that it is a trusted service, thus guaranteeing security and legal certainty. A message sent from an e-Delivery address has the same legal effect as a registered letter with acknowledgment of receipt.
e-Delivery services are provided exclusively by trusted service providers: Poczta Polska S.A., as a public provider, and commercial non-public providers registered in the registry maintained by the minister responsible for digitalization.
In accordance with the provisions of the Electronic Delivery Act, every entrepreneur has the option to submit an application for the creation of an e-Delivery address at any time.
The decision to start using e-Deliveries rests with the entrepreneur.
At the same time, we remind you that the Act specifies deadlines after which the use of an e-Delivery address will become mandatory for specific groups of entrepreneurs:
