Is an Electronic Signature Legal for Freelance Contracts?
Yes. In most jurisdictions including the UK (Electronic Communications Act 2000), US (ESIGN Act), and EU (eIDAS Regulation), electronic signatures on commercial contracts are legally binding. A drawn signature placed on a PDF counts as an electronic signature. Thousands of freelance contracts are signed this way daily.
Steps
Receive the contract PDF from the client. Go to fixmypdf.in/tools/pdf-sign. Upload the PDF. Draw your signature on the signature pad. Position it on the signature line. If there is a date field, add a text annotation. Download and return to the client.
Adding a Date
Most contracts have a date field next to the signature. Use the text annotation tool to add today's date as a text box in the date field, then return to sign.
Keeping a Copy
Save the signed PDF to your files. Both parties should have a copy of the fully signed contract — your signed version and the client's countersigned version.
