MASC Bill: The Key Role of Registered Email in Judicial Efficiency

In April 2025, a substantial part of Organic Law 1/2025 on Measures for the Efficiency of the Public Justice Service, better known as the MASC Bill (Adequate Means of Dispute Resolution), came into force. This milestone marks a decisive step in the modernization of justice in Spain, with a focus on faster, more secure and reliable dispute resolution.

One of the key aspects of the law is the regulation of judicial communications. Notifications and documentary evidence are essential in any legal process, and the law sets out the need for reliable methods that provide full legal guarantees. The question is clear: what is the best tool to comply? The answer is registered email, combining the legal strength of traditional methods with the efficiency of digital communications.

The importance of reliable evidence

According to the Lawyers of the Justice Administration of Barcelona, it is essential to use tools that can certify the date, receipt and access to content of notifications. This ensures transparency and provides legally valid proof.

Accepted means include:

• Burofax
• Certified postal mail
• Registered email

Excluded means, due to their lack of formal guarantees, include WhatsApp messages, SMS and phone calls.

Traditional options such as burofax or postal mail are valid, but they are also slow and expensive, which contradicts the efficiency objectives of the MASC Bill. Registered email, on the other hand, offers all the required guarantees at a fraction of the cost and with immediate delivery.

Benefits of registered email

Registered email meets the requirements of the law and adds additional advantages:

• Agility: Notifications are delivered instantly, without the delays of physical systems.
• Security: Ensures authenticity of sender, integrity of content, and provides legally valid proof of delivery date and access.
• Cost efficiency: At least 30 times cheaper than burofax or certified postal mail.
• Sustainability: A fully digital solution that reduces paper and resource consumption.

A tool for the justice of the future

The MASC Bill seeks not only to improve efficiency in the courts but also to promote the adoption of technologies that make justice more accessible and effective. Registered email provides certainty to all parties: from sending, to delivery, to proof of reading, every step is traceable and can serve as evidence if required.
