Lleida.net (BME: LLN) (EPA: ALLLN), the Spanish technology company specialising in registered electronic communications and digital signature solutions, has been selected by Barid Al Maghrib, Morocco’s national postal operator, to provide the core technology behind its Barid eSign electronic signature service.

The agreement will enable Moroccan citizens and businesses to digitally sign documents and participate in public procurement processes using legally valid electronic signatures, reinforcing the country’s digital public services infrastructure.

The contract is valued at €190,000 per year and includes provisions for up to four annual renewals, potentially extending the collaboration until 2030.
