OpenDocument Format (ODF) 1.3 Approved - brings support for digital signatures for documents and OpenPGP-based encryption of XML documents as the main features

Open Document Format is the official document format of many governments for the reason that it is interoperable across different office suites, is not locked into any brand or vendor, and is an open standard which can providing reading and editing compatibility in the future decades (for archiving).

One of the best known office suites that supports it by default is LibreOffice, but Microsoft Office and Google Docs also provide some measure of support, but more as an afterthought than as their primary format standard.
