This research method is classified as normative research, the approach method is descriptive analytical. This study shows that the regulation of electronic signatures on the deed of the Statement of Shareholders' Meeting Resolutions is the development of the form of legal evidence. For this reason, the form of evidence is made in the form of electronic information or electronic documents. The effect of the signing if it is done through electronic media, namely the result of the GMS decision has a legal impact on the status of ratification in the law. If the GMS has an electronic signature so that the legality of the legal action is recognized, the government and especially the legislators make legal rules to regulate with certainty the validity of the results of the GMS electronically, so that legal certainty is formed.
