Abstract                

Objectives: This study aims to clarify the formality of electronic contracts and the possibility of applying them in Palestinian legislation, by clarifying the meaning of electronic documents and clarifying the articles regulating them in Decree-Law No. 17 of 2024 and some comparative laws and determining the extent to which these contracts meet the customary and official formality that is written on an electronic medium.

Methods:: In this study, the researcher will follow the descriptive analytical comparative method, where work will be done to explain and analyze the texts regulating the subject and work to compare them with both Jordanian and Egyptian legislation.

Results: The researcher reached several results, the most important of which are: In order for the electronic document to have its full effect, it must meet several conditions, the most important of which is that the support used in the electronic document is able to preserve the information contained therein continuously and in a manner that ensures its survival and continuity, and that this recorded information is capable of being understood and perceived by humans, in addition to the necessity of documenting these documents with the competent documentation authorities. Therefore, the Palestinian legislator, as well as comparative legislation such as the Egyptian and Jordanian, recognized the full legal effect of electronic documents and equated them with traditional documents

Conclusions: Work on amending the special laws to be consistent with the Electronic Transactions Law, allowing all transactions to be conducted electronically without any exception, as is the case with paper documents.

Keywords: Official electronic documents, electronic formalities, electronic signatures
