For a time-independent field, Faraday's law gives $\nabla \times \mathbf{E}=0$. Integrating around a thin rectangular loop crossing $x=0$ and shrinking its height gives continuity of the tangential component:A thin Gaussian pillbox and $\nabla \cdot \mathbf{D}=0$ give continuity of the normal electric displacement field:These are the electrostatic cases of the dielectric-interface boundary conditions.
