The parties to the case shall register cases that are being processed by them systematically in one or more registers, depending on the circumstances, and keep the case files so that they are accessible. The most common practice is to keep such information in a case file, which records information on a document as soon as it reaches the party to the case, when it is sent or arises in a procedure. Case files are almost entirely electronic in Icelandic administration. A case file ensures that documents are found when needed and is a confirmation that documents have been received or sent. A case file may also include management and supervisory options, as it provides an overview of all cases of the party to the case. Rules on the registration of cases and the case files of parties to the case apply to this registration and retention obligation.
The term case refers to the subject matters or issues that are or have been handled by the parties responsible for the delivery.
