Call: eIdentification and eSignature (eID)

In the telecommunications sector, the CEF shall support actions that pursue the objectives specified in a Regulation on guidelines for trans-European networks in the area of telecommunications infrastructure.

Under this call, proposals will be funded that address one or more of the following four objectives:
A. eIdentification:
1. eID DSI integration: Integrating the eID DSI (Digital Service Infrastructures) in existing e-services/systems/online platforms in various public or private sectors.
2. Attributes enablement: Enabling attributes, mandates and authorities to be associated with electronic identities for cross-border use through the eIDAS node.
3. Student mobility: Supporting student mobility by enabling students to identify themselves in a trusted manner across borders and thus benefit from the 'Once Only Principle' in higher education institutions.
B. eSignature:
4. Uptake and reuse of eSignature: Developing systems for Member States and the private sector for the use of electronic signatures and electronic seals in line with the eIDAS Regulation.

Proposals may be submitted by consortia consisting of at least 3 entities from at least one Member State or EEA countries participating in the CEF Telecom programme.

Proposals must be submitted electronically using the eSubmission module
