"Login with your Address"

Insert address
Letter is send
Introduce code from the letter to authenticate

Who will implement this?

Probably Italy. All institutions and many households still have a working but unused fax line in Italy (which most photocopiers still support). Many documents can only be transferred either in person or by fax.

We are not savages, we have low cost multi-gigabit optic-fiber household connections available in the majority of cities. Our bureaucracy is just anachronistic.

Can't you just send official stuff via Posta elettronica certificata? I thought that was the point of these sorts of systems

PEC is usually not free (neither is fax, but a landline is more common than PEC). But also, I think it's not accepted everywhere. Maybe you can also use posta raccomandata. But for that you must go to the post office in person and wait in line with other 10 pensioners, and it also costs, so you are probably better off just handing the document in person.

Ah that's a shame, if they made it free (at least for communication with the state) i think it could clear up the fax situation a lot. They did this in my country and it got rid of the faxes
