Where to Get an E-Signature? Providers and How to Choose
A qualified e-signature (electronic signature) can only be issued by an Electronic Certificate Service Provider (ESHS) authorized by the Information and Communication Technologies Authority (BTK), or by its authorized resellers. Whichever provider you choose, the certificate has the same legal effect as a handwritten signature under Law No. 5070.

Well-known e-signature brands in Turkey include:

So what actually differs?
Legal validity is identical, so the decision comes down to service. Compare these six points before you buy:
| What to compare | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Total price | Compare the price including VAT, USB token and delivery. A low certificate price may hide a separate token or shipping fee. |
| Delivery time | Ask how many hours or days until the token is in your hands. Courier, cargo or pick-up options vary. |
| Installation support | Drivers and Java settings are where most people get stuck. Is remote installation included, and on the same day? |
| Renewal | Will you be reminded before it expires? Can you renew the certificate on your existing token? |
| Invoice and payment | Corporate invoice, bank transfer discount, credit card and installments. |
| Reachability | Phone, WhatsApp and e-mail support during working hours, and a real address. |

Frequently Asked Questions
Is an e-signature from a different provider valid everywhere?
Yes. A qualified electronic certificate issued by a BTK-authorized Electronic Certificate Service Provider (ESHS) has the same legal effect as a handwritten signature under Law No. 5070, whichever brand it comes from. It is used the same way for e-Devlet, UYAP, EKAP, e-Invoice and SGK.
What is the difference between providers?
Legal validity is the same. The differences are price, USB token model, delivery speed, installation support, ease of renewal and customer service. When choosing, look at the total price including VAT and token, delivery time and who will help you with installation.
Can I renew my existing e-signature with another provider?
Switching providers usually requires a new certificate and often a USB token supported by that provider. Just send us your token model and we will tell you whether it is compatible and which option suits you best.
Is it safe to buy through a reseller?
Authorized resellers have the certificate issued directly through the ESHS system; identity verification and e-Devlet approval follow the same rules. You can check a reseller's status with the provider, and the provider's authorization on BTK's official list.
What is the fastest way to get an e-signature?
The process starts when you apply online and give your e-Devlet approval. First-time applications within Istanbul can use motorcycle courier; other provinces are served by cargo. We can complete installation the same day via remote connection.
