What is an .edoc file?

EDOC is the format for digitally signed documents used in Latvia and produced by the national e-signature solution eParaksts. Technically it is a ZIP container based on the ASiC-E standard with XAdES signatures – very similar to Estonia's .asice and .bdoc files.

If you have neither the Latvian nor the Estonian signing software installed, or you are on a phone, ASiCE Viewer opens the .edoc file in the browser: you see the documents in the container, the signers' names and the signing time.
