Minister of Digitization has further postponed the date of implementation of mandatory e-delivery. According to the announcement published in the Journal of Laws on 19 July 2024, the term for introducing of this solution is moved from 1 October 2024 to 1 January 2025. The ministry highlights that this is the last postponement, and it results from the legislative process aimed at amending the Law on Electronic Deliveries.
According to the ministry, the obligated public entities are not sufficiently prepared to deliver correspondence by means of the public services of registered electronic delivery and hybrid delivery. Only 30 per cent of such entities have applied for establishing addresses for e-delivery. Thus, a transition period is considered, which will last until 31 December 2025, and will allow for gradual adaptation and promotional campaign. Both present (post, e-PUAP) and new solutions will apply during the transition period.
Besides, it will be necessary to identify a new Designated Provider (DP). The mandate of the current DP, i.e. the Polish Post, expires at the end of 2025. The Office of Electronic Communications is preparing a contest to select a new Provider. The system will be joined by more private service providers.
In line with the Act on Electronic Deliveries, the new solution is dedicated for, among others, entrepreneurs, public trust professionals, self-governments and public authorities, and the implementation of mandatory e-delivery is to take place in stages, depending on the type of entity and date of registration in CEiDG or National Court Register.
Regardless of the postponement of the deadlines, an application for assignment of e-delivery address can be filed any time, and the address can be activated on 1 January 2025.
