FAQ n.137907

What is the view of EASA on ‘paperless maintenance’ and on the use of electronic documents, records, and signatures?

Answer

Both European industry and EU Member State competent authorities have requested EASA to prepare guidelines to cover the topic of ‘paperless maintenance’, aiming to establish some basic standards upon which stakeholders can create their systems under the assumption that these will be recognised as adequate and regulatory-compliant by the competent authorities, at least those participating in the EU-aviation system.

This guide offers the view of EASA on the use of electronic documents, records, and signatures. This is not binding material.
