# Certified email

## A Certified Mail (Certified Electronic Mail), can be compared to sending a Bureaufax or Certified Letter, as it has the same validity for legal purposes and as possible legal evidence.

The Certified Email process generates a notification that certifies the identity of the sender, the content of the notification, its attachments, and the date and time of sending and receiving it on the recipient's server.

As proof, we can download the certificate in PDF, containing all the information regarding the sending of the Certified Email with the same legal validity as a Burofax.

### How to send a certified email through the Bigle platform

1\. Access the document you want to send as a certified email. Once you have completed the rest of the processes, choose ‘Add step’ on the left side panel. **Click on Certified email,** select the version of the document you want to use from the right-side menu and click on Select.
