Interconnection of national insolvency registers (IRI)
Interconnection of Land Registers (LRI)
The e-CODEX system • e-CODEX - an interoperable, decentralized and secure system for cross-border data exchanges (can support different procedures) • Allows participants to easily interlink their existing or future national systems across borders • Consists of an e. Delivery building block component and the “e-CODEX connector” which provides additional features (i. a. e. Signature verification). Both components are free of charge.
The e-CODEX system (2) • Presently used in the piloting of two civil law instruments – European Payment Order and European Small Claims Procedure • Citizens and courts are able to submit forms and supporting documents in a matter of seconds • The e-Justice Portal will also provide an access point to the e-CODEX network • e-CODEX also supports the e-Evidence digital exchange system in the criminal law field
Future use cases • Proposed Regulation on service of documents • Taking of evidence • E-evidence scheme
Ensuring quality in the interconnection • Provide transparency and cross-border access to information • Define minimum standards on data • Ensure quality of information • Provide full multilingual support in the official EU languages.
