You received an email with a link to sign a document. This page walks you through everything. You do not need to create an account, download an app, or pay anything. Signing is free.

​
What you need

  • The email with your signing link
  • A device with a web browser (phone, tablet, or computer)
  • A few minutes
Your signing link is private and unique to you and to this document. Do not forward it to anyone else.

​
Step by step: how to sign

1

Open your link

Click the link in the email from Suresign. The page opens in your browser with the title “Review document.”
2

Enter any required codes

If the sender added extra checks, you must pass them before the document is shown. This may be an access code the sender gave you, a six-digit code emailed to your address, or both. The emailed code expires after 10 minutes. If you are signed in to a Suresign account at the same verified address, the emailed code is not asked again. The access code always is.
3

Review the document

Read the document carefully. Make sure you understand what you are signing.
4

Tap the signature box

Find the place that says “Sign here” and tap it. A panel opens with your choices.
5

Adopt your signature

Pick the method you prefer:
  • Choose: Select a styled version of your name.
  • Draw: Use your finger, mouse, or stylus to draw freehand.
  • Upload: Upload an image of your signature.
If you have a Suresign account, you can reuse a signature you saved in Settings under Signatures. Then tap Adopt and sign.
6

Check the auto-filled fields

Fields like Date signed, Name, and Email usually fill themselves automatically. Date signed uses the day on your own calendar. Name comes from the sender’s invitation, or your email address if no name was given. Review them to make sure they are correct.
7

Finish

When everything looks right, confirm. Your signature is sealed into the document.

​
What happens after you sign

You see a screen that says “You’re done.”
  • If more people need to sign, the document moves to the next person automatically.
  • If you are the last signer, the document is sealed. Everyone gets a signed copy by email, together with a certificate of completion.
  • You can download your own copy right after finishing.

​
Your Signature ID

Every signature you leave carries a unique Signature ID. It belongs to you alone: account holders have one from the start, and signers without an account are issued one when they finish. The first 18 characters of your Signature ID are printed beneath your signature in the sealed PDF. This is how your marks are matched to you on the certificate.

​
Signing in any language or script

Suresign supports names in any script, including Hindi, Arabic, Japanese, and more. Your name appears correctly in the signed PDF, shaped properly for the writing system.

​
What if you need to decline

If you do not want to sign, you can decline:
1

Find the decline option

Look for the decline option on the signing page.
2

Give a reason

Enter a short reason, such as “I need to review with my lawyer first.” This helps the sender understand.
3

Submit

Tap submit. The sender is notified immediately.
Declining stops the document. All remaining signing links are revoked, and other signers will not be able to finish unless the sender restarts the process.
Your signing link is single-use. It stops working the moment you finish signing. Links also stop working when:
  • The sender cancels the document
  • Someone declines the document
  • The document expires
  • The document is deleted
If your link does not work and you still need to sign, ask the sender for a new one. Yes. Suresign is built for major electronic signature laws around the world. Your signature is protected by:
  • A signing link that only works for you
  • An audit trail that records every step with timestamps
  • A sealed PDF that no one can edit after signing
  • A certificate of completion you can verify anytime at suresign.si/verify
The file never leaves your device during verification. Suresign checks it locally in your browser.

​
Need help

  • Check your spam folder for the email.

  • Contact the person who sent the document.
