Hi,
Standard period of saving documents would be 4 months and then in Records Management it archives the data for backup purposes.
Standard period to save old documents maximum 20 Years.
However, we can keep files by scanning and saving in a hard drive.

yes, i meant the standard time for archiving old document as a hard copy.
Dear Mr. Mohammed,
Are you mean the standard time for archiving the old documents, like for how many years you should keep your old documents till you get rid of them?. Please advise.
Thanks
It depends on the type of documents in question and the local regulation in the country, in some countries you have to save some documents for specific period by law.
