Translation of the Cypriot law on electronic signatures

The unofficial translation of Law No. 188(I)/2004 entitled Framework Law Providing for the Legal Framework for Electronic Signatures and Associated Matters of 2004‚ which was enacted by the House of Representatives of the Republic of Cyprus on 30 April 2004, is by Olga Georgiades of Lellos P. Demetriades Law Office. In translating the Cypriot law, Olga compared the English version of the EU Directive with the Greek text of the Law. Due to the fact that the EU Directive was largely transposed into Cypriot law, Olga used the official English version of the EU Directive to provide the English translation of the Cypriot law.
