Spain-headquartered telecom operator and eIDAS Qualified Electronic Registered Delivery Services Company Lleida.net and Dubai-based Professional Couriers LLC have deployed in UAE the first “Native Digital Courier” service in the world.
Following a joint service development agreement between Professional Couriers and Lleida.net, a corporation listed in the Spanish Alternative Stock Market (MAB) and pan-European Euronext Growth since 2015 and 2018 respectively, the new Service will offer in the UAE as a world scoop the newly redefined Digital Courier Services in a fast, easy, efficient way of reliably delivering electronic documents, notifications, agreements, forms and contracts while generating “Legally Admissible Evidence” of such deliveries and proofs of delivery and acceptance.
The new service was presented in Dubai before private and public sector prospect customers of the new Digital Courier service and will start to operate immediately.
Digital Courier includes services offerings such as Electronic Documents Registered Delivery, Electronic Documents Registered Ship, Sign & Return, Registered SMS, Registered Email, Electronic Documents Registered Translation Services, Electronic Registered Customer Onboarding, amongst other.
The new Native Digital Courier concept
In today’s world, all documents are generated electronically; for delivering them with proof of delivery, we are used to print on paper, sign by hand, put inside an envelope and deliver physically through registered post mail or through a courier. Proof of delivery is typically generated with no real proof of the delivered content.
By using a “Digital Courier”, documents are “registered and delivered” in their native format (electronic), right out of the computer or the system that generated them, with no need of printing and no need of signing a paper or physical delivery. The Legally Admissible Delivery and Signature Evidence that’s generated has a much lower carbon footprint and comes at a fraction of the cost of printed registered communications in terms of money and time. The digital service also boasts of immediate delivery and instant proof of delivery via email or SMS.
Areas of application
Digital Courier Services can be used by businesses of any size and sector and for multiple purposes, such as proposals, offers, acceptance of terms and conditions, notifications, online agreements, purchase orders… It is especially useful for debt claims following the recent UAE cabinet resolutions on debt claims and the use of electronic means for debt claims (Resolutions 57/2018 & 9/2019).
When Legally Admissible Evidence of any delivery or transaction, including contents and timing, is available to all parties, litigation and its associated waste of time and money is greatly reduced.
Significant savings and increased efficiency
While registered paper mail or documents delivery is expensive, not only in terms of delivery fees, but also in cost of preparation, physical delivery, management of proofs of delivery, and lack any evidence of the delivered content, Lleida.net Registered Electronic Communications Services have proven to be an efficient, immediate, cost-effective way Registered Communications, with full proof of delivery, timing and contents, with Legally Admissible Evidence in compliance with UAE, European, and many other regulations.
