This revision will significantly impact how electronic documents are delivered via the DPMAdirektPro Electronic Mailbox. To ensure a smooth transition, users must take action now if they wish to continue using electronic document receipt under the new rules.

The DPMA is in the process of updating the DPMAdirektPro terms of use accordingly. Users must grant consent for document delivery and provide an email address for notifications. Without these steps, access to electronic document delivery will not be possible after the regulation takes effect.
