Can someone explain me the rules about electronic signature? all UK banks, institutions, HMRC issue letters/documents with electronic signature (that look like a copy), no hand written traditional signature, no stamp. SO those documents look like a copy. I came across many problems especially abroad when you take UK documents and HMRC tax residency certificates and other letters to notary foreign banks, where THEY ARE NOT ACCEPTED and treated like copies as they dont have real stamp or signature.

for an instance I took HMRC tax residency cert to a few bank and they rejected it because they treat is as a copy due to electronic copy look like signature, UK HMRC says its original, Foreign banks say it's a copy


can you someone please explain me issues about electronic signature, what to do in that situation and if any one had similar problems?


thanks
