Introduction of digital technologies in notary activity in the EAEU member states as a factor contributing to the creation of a unified notary information system

The article discusses the need to create a Unified Notary Information System in the Eurasian Economic Union, which will allow advancement to a higher level of economic cooperation, lead to more effective development of civil legal relations, and allow for electronic exchange of information and documents. The procedure for registration and execution of notarial acts has been studied; the amount of information to be recorded, as well as methods for recording it. A comparative analysis of the legislation of the member states of the Eurasian Economic Union regulating notarial activities was carried out. The procedure and method of collecting information, the level of security of documents, and the possibility of conducting verification activities to determine the authenticity of the submitted documents are considered. The subject of comparison is the degree of use of digital technologies within the framework of the electronic exchange of information and documents between participants in civil transactions (notaries, citizens, legal entities). Attention is focused on analyzing the degree of implementation of digital technologies within the framework of storing notarial documents. The capabilities of notaries to provide notarial services are considered, including the ability to collect information necessary to perform a notarial act, and information necessary to formalize inheritance rights. The powers of notaries in the framework of interaction with state registers have been studied, including the powers to carry out verification actions in relation to applicants, register rights to movable and immovable property, to introduce encumbrances on movable and immovable property, as well as to make changes to the information contained in state registers. The subject of comparison was the degree of digital technology usage in the process of storage of notarial documents, as well as in the framework of electronic exchange of information between participants of civil turnover (notaries, individuals and legal entities). Prospects for further research in this area are defined.
