An analysis of the technologies of digital signature is achieved within the European Union from three different angles: technique, official standard and I+D support. Firstly, a description of the nature and the bringing into operation of the digital signature is made, together with certificates,Trusted Third Parties, key management and its legal problems. Secondly, a historical analysis of the research support and the development of the European Community is also provided (European Trustworthy Services Programme), previous to the European Council directive about digital signature. Finally, the Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) is considered within the policies of IDA Programme (Interchange Data Administration) and the projection of the future European administrative intercommunication.
