This Technical Specification (CEN/TS) was approved by CEN on 28 March 2020 for provisional application.

The period of validity of this CEN/TS is limited initially to three years. After two years the members of CEN will be requested to
submit their comments, particularly on the question whether the CEN/TS can be converted into a European Standard.

CEN members are required to announce the existence of this CEN/TS in the same way as for an EN and to make the CEN/TS
available promptly at national level in an appropriate form. It is permissible to keep conflicting national standards in force (in
parallel to the CEN/TS) until the final decision about the possible conversion of the CEN/TS into an EN is reached.

European foreword
This document (CEN/TS 17457:2020) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 331 “Postal
services”, the secretariat of which is held by NEN.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. CEN shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
This document has been prepared under a standardization request given to CEN by the European
Commission and the European Free Trade Association.
According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organisations of the
following countries are bound to announce this Technical Specification: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria,
Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland,
Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Republic of
North Macedonia, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey and the United
Kingdom.
Introduction
This document focuses on the authentication of a delivery agent attempting to deliver a parcel into a
receptacle or parcel box system. Today, without a uniform system, the interoperability between
manufacturers and delivery operators is complex, as shown in Figure 1. The goal of this document is to
improve this situation as shown in Figure 2. Ideally, for a group of manufacturers who want to operate
with a group of delivery operators, it is advantageous to use a common system. This document specifies
the parameters to use to direct opening system solutions.

The opening system is a service provider based on an intermediary between the delivery organization
and the recipient, following Figure 3. The trust service can be a manufacturer or a manufacturer with a
third party.

1 Scope
The objective of this document is to define the framework for secure, trustworthy and user-friendly
opening systems for parcel boxes for home use. Particular attention is given to facilitating secure
electronic authentication of the delivery operator. This document exists considering the Standardization
request M/548 from the European Commission and it aims to solve the lack of operability between parcel
box manufacturers and delivery operators.
Therefore, this document describes the minimal requirements of a digital, optional online connected,
opening and closing system for parcel boxes and prerequisites to create favourable conditions of
interoperability between all market participants.
This document is designed to fit with solutions already on the market and define the good practices and
pathway for future systems. It adopts an approach which is open to innovation. It is expected to be
possible to achieve the necessary requirements through different technologies.
The systems of opening rights are intended to open parcel boxes as defined in CEN/TS 16819. However,
the specification is extended to other receptacle solutions, in the frame of the home use (e.g. garage door,
bags, etc.), when these receptacle solutions are compliant with the requirements of CEN/TS 16819 when
the case allows.
