FAQs

Are e-signatures legally binding for event management contracts in Australia?
Yes, e-signatures are legally binding for event management contracts in Australia under the Electronic Transactions Act 1999 (Cth) and corresponding state legislation. These laws recognize electronic signatures as equivalent to wet-ink signatures if they reliably identify the signatory and demonstrate their intent to sign. For event contracts, such as venue agreements or supplier terms, ensure the platform used meets these criteria to maintain enforceability.
