SECTION 7

Electronic registered delivery services

whereas

(14) Some conditions need to be set out in this Regulation with regard to which electronic_identification means have to be recognised and how the electronic_identification schemes should be notified.
Those conditions should help Member States to build the necessary trust in each other’s electronic_identification schemes and to mutually recognise electronic_identification means falling under their notified schemes.
The principle of mutual recognition should apply if the notifying Member State’s electronic_identification scheme meets the conditions of notification and the notification was published in the Official Journal of the European Union.
However, the principle of mutual recognition should only relate to authentication for an online service.
The access to those online services and their final delivery to the applicant should be closely linked to the right to receive such services under the conditions set out in national legislation.
